About the course
The course builds on knowledge from previous chemistry courses, in particular biochemistry ones, and will give a deeper knowledge and understanding of biochemistry. Chemical structure, molecular organization of biological systems, biomolecular processes, as well as the structure and evolution of proteins and the design of protein function are covered in lectures, seminars, problem-solving exercises and laboratory exercises. Biochemistry experimental methodology training contains analytical and preparative separation techniques.
