Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Objectives
Students will deepen their knowledge in genetics and molecular biology. This will be supported on a case-by-case basis via independent compilation of pertinent literature (textbooks or original articles). This will enable them to assess the subjects of genetics and molecular biology in the context of nutritional sciences.

Contents
Applied genetics

DNA replication
Telomeres and effects of dietary patterns
Effect of nutrition on epigenetic mechanisms

Applied molecular biology
Molecular mechanisms of tumor pathogenesis and impact of food/nutrients

Methods
Power point presentations will be available via LMS
Journal articles and reviews on current topics of Applied Genetics and Molecular Biology after prior announcement
