課程概述 |
This course is aimed to deliver enhanced knowledge and recent developments of the those areas of biology that integrate functions and structures in cells, tissues, and organisms. Students enrolled in this course will be familiarized with recently recognized biological processes related to cell and molecular biology, neurobiology, developmental biology, and physiology in various biological models. Each lecture will provide a timely compilation of articles that encompass the most up-to-date information specific to selected topics at the cellular and organismal level. This course also provides a framework to prepare students for careers in related research fields. The expertise and experience offered by participating lecturers will also be integrated into formal coursework and classroom discussions.
Course materials and suggested readings will be selected from the review articles published in such prestigious journals as Annual Reviews, Nature Reviews, Nature, Science, and Cell etc.
