Molecular Medicine

4 credits · Undergraduate

The overarching goal of MCB153 is to convey to students the scientific and regulatory process by which therapeutic drugs are developed and created. After completing this course, students will have a firm understanding on the mechanism of action of several therapies used to fight disease. The course will cover areas such as the discovery and refinement of antibiotics, anti-virals, cancer therapies and CRISPR-based therapies. Furthermore, MCB153 will delve into disease areas not covered in other courses, such as autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular diseases and neurological diseases. Lastly, MCB153 will implement a “case study” for each topic displaying real world challenges and solutions to treating complex diseases.
