Course structure and subjects
The online Molecular & Cell Biology course is divided into 4 blocks of several weeks each. The 5 main subjects you will study are:
- Molecular Biology: DNA replication, gene transcription and translation, regulation of gene expression
- Molecular Techniques: recombinant DNA technology, DNA sequencing, cloning & vectors, RNA interference, CRISPR-Cas
- Cell Biology: the cell membrane and membrane transport, intracellular transport of proteins, cell signaling, the cytoskeleton and the cell cycle
- Bioinformatics: cloning workshop, protein & pathway databases, gene ontology, homology & multiple sequence alignments
- Biochemistry: protein (structure), protein purification, analysis of enzymes & enzyme kinetics
Further program details
Once you're finished...
... you’ll have knowledge and understanding of the basic principles in molecular and cell biology. You’ll also be able to apply these principles to answer basic research questions.
