Biochemical sciences study the structure of the individual complex molecules
that make up all living organisms, as well as the impressive network of chemical
processes that are the essence of life. Biochemists explore the molecular basis
of how bacteria, algae and plants ‘eat’ incident solar radiation (sunlight) to
produce sugar and carbohydrate reserves. Biochemistry helps us understand
diseases of plants and animals in order to correct deficiencies through genetic
engineering and new agro-chemicals and pharmaceuticals. As the foundation
of the life sciences, biochemistry contributes more and more to the well-being of
the world’s population and to society’s economic growth.
课程简介
This Biochemistry grad course will provide you with a solid grounding in
biology, chemistry, molecular- and systems-biology. Throughout the course,
you will have the opportunity to supplement your classroom learning with a
significant amount of English discussion in small-group innovation teams.
This course will allow you to become more acquainted with specialized
techniques and high-performance equipment, preparing you to move on to the
fields of modern biochemistry: proteomics, genomics, molecular biology,
genetic engineering, integrated metabolism, structural biochemistry, protein
engineering and molecular modeling. During the course, you even have the
opportunity to contribute to the advancement of scientific knowledge by
participating in cutting-edge problem analysis, brain-storming, innovation,
research and invention as you complete a three-week long Innovation Research
Project with some of the world’s leading researchers.
Advanced training via Biochemistry can help you prepare for careers in
industrial, pharmaceutical, agri-food, clinical or research laboratories. You can
also choose to study medicine, law, business or go on to teaching or postdoctoral
studies. By focusing this course on a variety of subjects, such as the analysis of
detailed aspects of molecular structures and the study of the integration of
metabolism in whole organismal systems, this broad, basic background helps
prepare you for a number of different work environments: teaching and research
in an academic setting; research and administration in the biotechnology or
pharmaceutical industry; or health-related disciplines in the public or private
sector.
Students with undergraduate education in the Life Science areas are welcome to
take this course for credit: entomology, animal models of human disease,
bioenergetics and metabolism, cancer biology, crop improvement,
developmental genetics, growth and development, host resistance, membrane
proteins, molecular biology of plants, viruses, bacteria and parasites, molecular
biopharming in transgenic plants, protein farming, molecular genetics,
molecular therapeutics, nanotechnology, neuromuscular disease, obesity, oral
vaccines, physical biochemistry, protein chemistry, protein structure-function
relationships, proteomics, RNA metabolism, signal transduction, or structural
biology, just to name a few. The course will consist of Lectures, Discussion
Groups, Seminars, and Invention Trios.
