Developmental Biology
This course provides a contemporary approach to the study of Developmental Biology. Classical descriptions of early embryonic development are supplemented with modern findings in genetics, biochemistry and molecular biology to give the student a solid basis for understanding the mechanisms of human development, growth and differentiation. Focusing on some model developmental systems, the student should be able to gain knowledge on the complex mechanisms involved in the processes that transform eggs to embryos and beyond.
