Molecular Biology and Genetics in Modern Medicine
HST.161 · Health Sciences and Technology · Graduate · Fall 2007
Prof. David Housman, Prof. Anne Giersch
This course provides a foundation for understanding the relationship between molecular biology, developmental biology, genetics, genomics, bioinformatics, and medicine. It develops explicit connections between basic research, medical understanding, and the perspective of patients. Principles of human genetics are reviewed. We translate clinical understanding into analysis at the level of the gene, chromosome and molecule; we cover the concepts and techniques of molecular biology and genomics, a…
