In the last couple of decades alone, huge strides have been made in the areas of recombinant DNA technology, protein chemistry and structural biology. The course will lay the foundation for a better understanding of these exciting areas of biological science. The course will also introduce students to recent trends in biochemical research. The homework assignments will be designed to encourage students to critically analyze the ideas and information obtained in lecture and to apply this knowledge to new situations. The class will consist primarily of lectures and discussion of homework assignments.
Questions are always welcome.
Course grades will be based on two midterms, homework assignments, in-class participation and a final exam. Copyright 2000 Northwestern University School of Continuing Studies 339 East Chicago Ave.
