| Learning outcomes |
|
The aim of the seminar is to extend basic knowledge of cellular biology and human genetics. The seminars are focused on modern aspects of molecular medicine, especially on molecular pathophysiology of malignancies.
This subject allows the students to better understand the connection between dysfunctional cellular processes (cell signaling, cell division) and development of some human diseases, such as human cancers. |
