Faglig innhold
The lectures will cover the organization and major features of the regulation of the function of the human genome, such as gene expression, replication and genome maintenance. Consequences of mutations and polymorphisms, and impacts of genes and environment on major common diseases, such as cancer, diabetes, vascular and coronary disease, will be covered. Basic principles of extracellular and intracellular signaling systems will also be included. Methods of DNA analysis, gene technology and applied bioinformatics will be discussed.
