Aims

The module will introduce students to a range of important cellular processes and some of the main molecular mechanisms associated with the regulation of these processes.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Appraise the mechanisms of selected cellular processes
2.
Study cellular processes experimentally

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:Translation and post-translational modifications Receptors and Signalling pathways Exocytosis/endocytosis Tissue homeostasis Molecular mechanisms of mitosis Immunology
Module Overview:
This module will introduce you to a range of important cellular processes and some of the main molecular mechanisms associated with the regulation of these processes. It will empower you to demonstrate a critical understanding of signal transduction, cell proliferation and mechanisms of cell death. You will encounter experimental methods for the investigation of relevant areas of biochemistry and molecular biology.
Additional Information:This module will empower students to demonstrate a critical understanding of signal transduction, cell proliferation and mechanisms of cell death. Transport of molecules in and out of cells will be explained and molecular cell immunology will be introduced. Students will encounter experimental methods for the investigation of relevant areas of biochemistry and molecular biology.
