• The aim of the course is to ensure that students develop knowledge and understanding related to molecular genetics, exploring the explanation of central dogma of molecular biology through understanding of the aspects of molecular biology issues. compare between genetic materials in different organisms and study their functions, and to develop practical skills in molecular genetic techniques, thinking analytically and solving problems related to different molecular genetic subjects.
• Understand the structures and components of genes, genomes, chromosomes, and chromatin.
• Know the molecular mechanisms of gene transcription and posttranscription. understand the molecular mechanisms of genetic and epigenetic regulation of gene expression.
Learn how to study growth and development using forward genetic and reverse genetic approaches.
• Understand modern technologies used for analyzing structure and function of genes.
• Demonstrate an understanding of how genes and genomes evolve.
• Describe the fundamental principles related to molecular genetics and apply these principles to biological questions of today.
• Learn how to review literature in the field of molecular genetics and develop the ability to synthesize, integrate, and communicate scientific information.
