海外教师主导的研究生全英文课程基本信息表 课程名称 生物化学 上课时间 12月2日-12月17日（周末不上课）每天下午6-9节 上课地点 紫金港校区东1B-311 课程简介 Biochemical sciences study the structure of the individual complex molecules that make up all living organisms, as well as the impressive network of chemical processes that are the essence of life. Biochemists explore the molecular basis of how bacteria, algae and plants ‘eat’ incident solar radiation (sunlight) to produce sugar and carbohydrate reserves. Biochemistry helps us understand diseases of plants and animals in order to correct deficiencies through genetic engineering and new agro-chemicals and pharmaceuticals. As the foundation of the life sciences, biochemistry contributes more and more to the well-being of the world’s population and to society’s economic growth. This Biochemistry grad course will provide you with a solid grounding in biology, chemistry, molecular- and systems-biology. Throughout the course, you will have the opportunity to supplement your classroom learning with a significant amount of English discussion in small-group innovation teams. This course will allow you to become more acquainted with specialized techniques and high-performance equipment, preparing you to move on to the fields of modern biochemistry: proteomics, genomics, molecular biology, genetic engineering, integrated metabolism, structural biochemistry, protein engineering and molecular modeling. During the course, you even have the opportunity to contribute to the advancement of scientific knowledge by participating in cutting-edge problem analysis, brain-storming, innovation, research and invention as you complete a three-week long Innovation Research Project with some of the world’s leading researchers. Advanced training via Biochemistry can help you prepare for careers in industrial, pharmaceutical, agri-food, clinical or research laboratories. You can also choose to study medicine, law, business or go on to teaching or postdoctoral studies. By focusing this course on a var
