BIO 329 SURVEY OF BIOCHEMISTRY

This is a one-semester course, that focuses on  the major themes of biochemistry within a  biological context. There will be special emphasis on protein structure/function, enzyme kinetics and on carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. To facilitate an in-depth understanding of these fundamental principles, we will explore specific cases where abnormal biochemical processes result in disease. In addition to case studies the course will use a variety of teaching styles from traditional lecture to team-based problem solving. This course was designed with those interested in the allied health professions (such as PA or Nursing) in mind. Students considering medical/dental/veterinary tracks are encouraged to take the lab-based CHM/CHML 351 Biochemistry 1.
