BIO 301 Introduction to Molecular Biology |
4 Credits |
Introduction to Molecular Biology is a detailed
introduction to basic mechanisms of molecular
biology and genetics. Starting from genomic information and
genome organization, DNA structure, packaging
to chromosomes, replication of genetic material and its
fidelity, mechanisms to repair and recombination of DNA
will be discussed in the lecture. RNA
structure, mechanisms of DNA transcription to RNA,
transcriptional control mechanisms and transcription
factors will be studied in detail. RNA to
protein translation mechanisms and ribosome structure will
be dissected. Protein stability, protein degradation
echanisms, role of miRNAs and RNA stability on
gene expression will be discussed. A general introduction
to programmed cell death mechanims will
be presented.The lab course is practical course on
principle techniques for production of recombinant
proteins in bacteria and animal cells. Lab work
will involve utilisation of molecular cloning
techniques to produce a particular gene product.
Recombinant plasmids carrying either single
gene or that for a fusion protein will be constructed and
used to transform E. coli, and the gene products
will be isolated and characterized.

All BIO FENS students are required to complete an
internship project (BIO 395) with a minimum duration of 8
weeks after 3rd year and to have a satisfactory (S) standing
so as to receive their BSc degrees. The main objectives of
the internship project are (i) to give the students a chance
to gain first-hand working experience in an industrial
setting, (ii) to enhance their technical and communications
skills, (iii) to enable them to interact with engineers and
technicians effectively. At the same time, the internship
projects help the students' professional development.
Students determine their internship companies/institutions
based on their interests and programs they are enrolled in.
At the end of the project, students are required to prepare
and submit a final project report and make a presentation.
Students have to be enrolled in a BIO Diploma Program in
order to register for this course. See the Internship

BIO 421 Tissue Engineering |
3 Credits |
Tissue engineering combines the skills of engineering
and knowledge of principle biology to generate,
restore and replace damaged tissues and organs. To
engineer living tissues mimicking conditions in living
organism is essential. Therefore, tissue engineering is
considered a biomedical engineering discipline and a
potential alternative to tissue and organ
transplantation. This course is built on three main
pillars of tissue engineering: cells, scaffolds, and
growth factors. Initially stem cells and differentiation
is discussed as well as cell-based tissue engineering
applications. Then design and characterization of
biomaterials and nanomaterials as tissue scaffolds are
covered. Here, various bio-fabrication techniques
including 3D bioprinting are detailed. This course also
covers the interaction with biomaterial surface,
mechanical loading, biologic regulators, and culture
conditions. Finally, examples of tissue engineering-
based procedures that can alleviate specific diseases
and clinical translation of regenerative therapies are
analyzed as case studies with student presentations.
This course also contains a laboratory session. At this
session students will learn to handle mammalian cell
cultures, prepare hydrogel and polymer scaffolds,
perform tissue culture and characterization.

BIO 423 Neurobiology |
3 Credits |
The study of the nervous system and its elements,
such as neurons and neural pathways, and how
these mechanisms mediate behaviour is called
neurobiology. It is a broad and rapidly evolving
field in biology. This course is designed to
provide students with an in-depth understanding
of molecular and cellular neurobiology, as well
as a basic understanding of general neurobiology.
Emphasis is placed on mammalian neurobiology,
particularly humans. The first part of the course
covers neuroanatomy and essential neurocellular
signalling pathways, including chemical and
electrical signalling and neurotransmission. The
course then looks at how the nervous system
develops in childhood, how it evolves as a result
of life experiences, how it behaves during
everyday activities, and how it is disrupted by
injury and disease. The course also covers
emerging neuroscience research techniques.

BIO 446 Biology of Aging |
3 Credits |
The course intends to provide an up-to-
date overview of the field of aging and
gerontology. While all of us intuitively
know what the aging is, many basic
questions about aging are mysterious. Is
aging itself a disease, and can we
successfully intervene in the aging
process? Or is it a program that one can
hack? The course will start with a
discussion of aging systems both from the
view of biologist but also from the point of
view of a system engenderer. We will
explore the scientific discoveries made
from studies of model organisms, which
have led to revelations about the
molecular biology of aging. We will look
at aging at different angles – from
population genetics to the “reliability
theory”. The second part of the course will
describe methods for studying aging,
descriptions of population aging, and
theories on how and why we age. We are
going to understand why older people
more likely to experience
neurodegenerative disorders, stroke, and
cancer and what kind of changes happen at
the molecular and cellular levels that are
associated with these diseases. The third
part of the course provides an in depth
discussion of the processes of aging in
various body systems. In combination with
this we will discuss some medical
treatments that can extend the lifespan of
organisms as diverse as yeast and primates,
and the implications for successfully
intervening in age-related diseases. Finally
students will explore biological changes
that occur with aging at the molecular and
organismal levels and how they can be
viewed from the perspectives of various
disciplines.

BIO 467 Signal Transduction |
3 Credits |
The molecular mechanisms by which environmental
signals are received by cells and translated into
a biological response such as development, cell behavior,
immune response are currently one of the most-studied
areas in modern biology. In this course several prototype-
signalling pathways to discuss the mechanistic concepts in
signal transduction, to present state-of-art research,
and to discuss various experimental approaches will be
presented. The most relevant concepts of signal
transduction, i.e. protein-protein interactions,
phosphorylation and GTP-binding proteins will be discussed.
