Cours
Biological chemistry I
BIO-212
La biochimie est une discipline clé dans les sciences de la vie. La chimie biologique I et II sont deux cours étroitement interconnectés qui visent à comprendre en termes moléculaires les processus qui rendent la vie possible.
Scientific literature analysis in computational molecular biology
BIO-468
But: apprendre à analyser un article scientifique de manière critique, c'est-à-dire d'étudier le bien fondé des questions scientifiques posées et des conclusions tirées. Cette analyse est présentée sous la forme d'un résumé écrit critique mais constructif, dans le style d'un `referee report'.
Structural biology
BIO-315
Ce cours est axé sur les interactions moléculaires qui définissent la structure, la dynamique et la fonction des systèmes biologiques. Les principales techniques expérimentales et computationnelles utilisées en biologie structurale seront présentées et mises en pratique.
Synthetic biology
BIOENG-320
Ce cours avancé de niveau Bachelor/Master couvrira les principes fondamentaux et les approches à l'interface de la biologie, la chimie, l'ingénierie et l'informatique pour la biologie synthétique. Ce cours requiert une pensée critique et analytique aux frontières de plusieurs disciplines.
