BIOL 266 - Cell & Molecular Biology

4 Credits

1 Units

Cell and molecular biology course focuses on the structure and function of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. It explores topics such as synthesis and function of macromolecules, membrane and organelle structure, bioenergetics, the secretory pathway, cytoskeleton, and cellular communication. Relevant human disorders are also used as examples of what happens when cells don’t work as they should. Laboratory will focus both on experiments that help illustrate cellular phenomena, as well as on the introduction of techniques and procedures commonly utilized in modern cell and molecular biology research.
