課程概述

本課程將由美國Rutgers大學楊中樞教授以英語授課。上課時間共六次,每次3堂課。集中在10/29, 30, 11/5, 6, 7 晚上6:00至9:00 及11/4 週日下午2:00至5:00。The course will review the evidence for the prevention of chronic diseases through diet and other life-style factors. It will discuss the molecular mechanisms of the occurrence and prevention of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases and cancer. The course will start with a review of basic principles of nutrition and proceed into the current literature on disease prevention. In addition to lectures (in English), presentations (in English or Chinese) of recent or classical papers by advanced students (selected by the professor or students) are scheduled and class discussions are strongly encouraged. 

課程目標
1.For students to have a clear understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which diet, exercise and smoking affect the onset of chronic diseases.
2.For students to increase their ability to read research papers and to understand how research is conducted to obtain useful information.
3.For students to have a good understanding of the topics and the ability to distinguish between scientific information from folklores or faddism. This will enable the students to apply the knowledge learned to their daily lives and select a healthy diet and life-style, and influence the persons they are in contact with.
4.For students to form a habit of “learning in class”, “being curious,” asking questions and participating in class discussions. 
課程要求
The course is mainly for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students. There is no strict requirement; basic courses in organic chemistry, biochemistry and nutrition (or food chemistry) will help the students appreciate the course material.
Final examination (open book) for students who do not make class presentations – time to be arranged
