Biochemistry with Neuroscience with Foundation Year

Biochemistry with Neuroscience follows a focused pathway through core areas of the discipline from understanding the structure-function relationships of the major building blocks of life including nucleic acids, carbohydrates and proteins to the regulation and control of major metabolic pathways, gene expression and cellular activity. As you progress through the course you will apply core knowledge of these topics to understanding the structure and function of antibodies, hormones and cell receptors and their roles within multicellular organisms, as well as experimental methods applied in areas of biotechnology and genetic engineering.
