Biological Sciences II

Catalog description

The course explores the basics and molecular basis for important physiological processes supporting a healthy state. Disease states will also be examined with a slight emphasis on specific biological molecules that are specific targets of drug action. This course will augment the understanding of how drugs are rationally designed based on their interactions with specific biological molecules which affect the function of targeted metabolic pathways. The topics in these courses include: Cell Biology, Immunology, Microbiology and in the second semester, physiology.
