Molecular and Cellular Bases of Metabolic and Nutritional Diseases
A.Y. 2025/2026
Learning objectives
The aim of the course is to provide the bases for the understanding of metabolic and nutrition disorders by discussing the molecular and cellular mechanisms behind such human diseases. By the end of the course, students will have an overview of the correlations that exist between molecular/cellular disfunctions and the macroscopic phenotype of the disease. Moreover, students will be able to critically evaluate and discuss the latest scientific literature focused on metabolic and nutrition disorders.
Expected learning outcomes
At the end of the course, students should have acquired a comprehensive view of the interrelations between molecular and cellular malfunctions and the macroscopic phenotype of the disease. Moreover, students must have acquired the ability to understand, interpret, critically evaluate, and discuss the scientific literature in the field of metabolic and nutrition disorders.
