Molecular Foundations of Biological Systems

Catalog description

This is a core course in the Complex Biological Systems graduate program. This course will emphasize the diversity of biological molecules, macromolecular complexes, and subcellular structures. Problem-based approaches will address molecular questions from various research angles to develop students’ inquisitive research skills. Students will learn how the combination of experimental and computational techniques allows understanding of life at the molecular level from individual molecules to systems molecules that underpin subcellular functions.
