Course Description

To provide an in depth examination of cancer at the molecular level. As a disease of the DNA, cancer can arise from disruption of multiple cellular pathways, particularly those that control cell cycle progression. Focuses on the molecular basis of cancer, including the role of oncogenes and tumor suppression genes in the development of cancer; regulation of genomic stability; progression to a metastatic state, and the mechanism of action of clinically relevant cancer treatments.
