This advanced cell biology course covers topics such as lipid rafts, mitochondrial protein transport, nuclear transport, protein targeting, vesicle trafficking, Golgi complex function, stem cell therapy, protein folding, and cell cycle regulation. By the end of the course, students will have a deep understanding of these cellular processes and mechanisms. The course teaches skills in protein transport, vesicle trafficking, post-translational modifications, and cell cycle regulation. The teaching method includes lectures, animations, and detailed explanations of complex biological processes. This course is intended for students or professionals with a background in biology or a related field who want to deepen their knowledge of cell biology and molecular processes.
