About the Program

The programme in Molecular and Computational Biology introduces students to molecular aspects in cell biology, developmental biology, microbiology, and biophysics. Furthermore, topics and concepts in neuroscience, infection and immunity, integrative biology, and biomedicine are presented. Special attention is given to the eucaryotic cell and both the fundamental principles of molecular cell biology and the huge structural and functional diversity of molecules, organelles, and cells. Molecular aspects are addressed using tools of bioinformatics and approaches based in computational systems biology. These include functional genomics, dynamic analysis of the transcriptome, and metabolic and regulatory networks.
