Biochemistry University of Tsukuba
Course Overview
Advanced biochemistry covers a wide area including molecular cell biology, molecular genetics, biotechnology, metabolism, and relates all current biological sciences. In this year, experts of three major classes of the organisms (microorganisms, plants, animals) give lectures from the professional points of view. This course provides an introduction to biochemistry for the undergraduates who are able to learn basic to applied knowledge of life and environmental sciences.
