MSCMP 2740 - MOLECULAR PATHOBIOLOGY
Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course is structured to introduce students to the integration between basic and clinical research on the molecular pathogenesis of highly relevant human diseases such as diabetes, congestive heart failure, bone disease, neurodegenerative disorders and asthma. The course provides students with an overview of the natural history of the diseases, their diagnosis and clinical management. This will be followed by in-depth discussions concerning the pathologic substrate of the disease, with particular attention focused on the molecular mechanisms of disease progression. In addition to current basic science research, students will be exposed to the clinical impact of basic science discoveries upon the development of new therapeutic interventions. We discuss current research trends and factors that enhance fundability of research projects, the current knowledge gaps of the science and impact of therapeutic development.
