BIOMOLECULAR INTERACTIONS IN CLINICAL AND MOLECULAR CELL BIOLOGY

INTRODUCTION (Course objectives)

This certificate course of Biochemistry, the students will learn the principles governing the interactions of individual molecules, and how those same princi- ples apply at the scale of cells and organisms. This certificate course is led by Asutosh College faculty of Biochemistry and features:

• detailed illustrations of concepts on fundamentals of biomolecules and their interactions in human body.
• analytical methods and tools to investigate the biomolecular interactions.
• clinical application of the biomolecular interactions with respect to hu- man diseases.

Course Benefits

At the end of this six-month certificate course, the students will:

1. Get extensive exposure to theory and experimental aspects of modern bio- chemistry as well as clinical aspects of modern biology.
2. Develop basic and fundamental ideas about the major biomolecules in human body.
3. Generate birds eye view about the ongoing biochemical interactions and physiological role of the biomolecules.
4. Yield knowledge about the various cellular processes at the molecular and genetic level.
5. Acquire perception regarding the analytical tools and methods used to study the biochemical processes.
6. Be able to gain insight into the clinical aspects of biochemistry and ap- plications in diagnosis of human diseases and pathology.

N.B. They will be encouraged to participate in the departmental seminars or webinars, and other departmental scientific activities.
