Functional Organization of Eukaryotic Cells

Course Description

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2024-2025.

This course will cover the fundamental concepts and biochemical mechanisms that contribute to the functional organization of eukaryotic cells as well as key experimental approaches in cell and molecular biology. The students are also expected to present how the major discoveries in cell biology were made and critically evaluate recent literature on cell biology.

When Offered Spring.

Prerequisites/Corequisites Prerequisite: BIOMG 3300, or BIOMG 3330, or BIOMG 3350, or BIOMG 3310/BIOMG 3320, and BIOMG 4320, or equivalents.

• Students will formulate the fundamental concepts and biochemical mechanisms that contribute to the functional organization of eukaryotic cells. Students will be able to implement these principles to identify and address contemporary issues.
• Students will be able to describe the basic principles of key experimental approaches in cell and molecular biology and use them to address cell biological problems.
• Students will be able to implement cell biological concepts to interpret and discuss experimental data and conclusions from recent literature. Students will appraise the importance of rigor and reproducibility in cell biology research.
