Biology
This course reviews the major areas of biology including cell biology, genetics, evolution, phylogeny, the structure and function of plants and animals, their origin and evolution, their reproduction and genetics, and their diversity and ecological relations.
Academic Supervisor: Josefina García Eguiagaray
Chemistry
This course reviews the general principles of modern chemistry with emphasis on atomic structure, chemical bonding, the periodic table, equilibria, chemical reactivity, and kinetics.
Academic Supervisor: Enrique Parra Crego
Biochemistry
This course describes the biochemistry and molecular biology of selected key functions of cells, including gene expression, mitochondrial production of metabolic energy, cellular communication with the extra-cellular environment, and regulation of cell division.
Academic Supervisor: Girish Kumar Srivastava
Proteins & Carbohydrates
This course studies proteins and carbohydrates and describes their metabolic and physiologic concepts, functions, and structures. It considers the proteins and carbohydrates composition of food products, their requirements through the life cycle, the quality of proteins, protein deficiency, carbohydrates physiological importance, low carbohydrate diets, glycemic response to foods, and inborn errors in carbohydrate and protein metabolism.
Academic Supervisor: Leonie van Heerden
Lipids & Fats
This course overviews lipids and fats, the composition of human fluids and tissues, their metabolism, their effects, and physiological functions. It examines the effects of diseases on the molecular structure of lipids and the ways their changes can be reversed through proper nutrition.
Academic Supervisor: Leonie van Heerden
Vitamins & Minerals
This course examines biologically essential minerals and vitamins and their absorption, transport, function, storage, excretion, imbalance, deficiency, and toxicity. It considers the dietary sources and role of minerals and vitamins in health, and the role of modern food technology on the availability of these nutrients in our food supply.
Academic Supervisor: Marcos Mazzuka Petitta
Nucleic Acids
This course examines the chemistry of RNA and DNA, transcription, and splicing of RNA and their control; enzymology of DNA replication; the structure, replication, segregation, recombination, and function of chromosomes; and special topics on transgenics, genetic diseases, and cancer.
Academic Supervisor: Girish Kumar Srivastava
Macromolecules
This course studies the macromolecular structure that integrates the basic principles of equilibrium thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, and molecular dynamics in the cell. Particular attention is paid to the forces and energetics of single molecules and how they affect the cell structure and functioning.
Academic Supervisor: Girish Kumar Srivastava
Biochemical Organic Balance
Every disease, symptom, discharge, and pain indicates a chemical imbalance in the body. A body that is chemically well-balanced will normalize itself. This course focuses on the chemical elements, their structures, and their application, including vitamins, enzymes, proteins, starches, prostaglandins, and minerals found in foods in order to understand the biochemical organic balance from which health and well-being spring.
Academic Supervisor: Jose W. Rodriguez
Cell Bioenergetics
This course discusses biochemical thermodynamics, kinetics, and bioenergetics. It considers topics such as cell metabolism, photosynthesis, lipids, and membranes. It also reviews the relevant bioenergetic principles of photosynthesis, bioluminescence, photoinactivation, and mutation.
Academic Supervisor: Girish Kumar Srivastava
Molecular Cell Biology
This course examines the organization and functioning of cells and cellular organelles at the molecular level, their processes, and their regulation. It stresses on the experimental approaches and structural/functional relationships in the cell.
