Course Summary
The Cellular Pathways course provides a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental biochemistry of cellular processes and pathways that govern various biological functions. Students will gain an understanding of the key molecular and biochemical mechanisms underlying human cellular activities, including metabolism, enzyme kinetics, cellular trafficking, signal transduction, development, repair and cell cycle regulationThrough lectures, laboratory exercises, workshops and case studies, students will develop a deep knowledge of cellular biochemical pathways and their implications for human health and disease.?
Practical sessions will focus on developing technical skills, scientific data collection, analysis and reporting. The course develops an understanding of biomedical research and the rigour required to authentically describe and present research results.?
The course will prepare students for the final year core courses and WIL biomedical research placement.
