Students gain broad foundational knowledge and skills for rigorous research in emerging areas of cell and molecular biology. Focus on foundational knowledge of cell and molecular biology research areas including cell cycle, cell signaling, cell metabolism, cell communication, cell states and fates, genomes, and proteomes. Focus on skills development for cell and molecular biology research. Students are equipped with theory of modern experimental approaches, and acquire hands-on skills training in designing experiments and analyzing data using these approaches. Students meet with directors of shared core facilities that specialize in these approaches to facilitate use of these approaches in their research Continuation of in-depth analysis of rigorous experimental design and statistical analyses in cell and molecular biology. Concurrently scheduled with course C232A.
