MNT 551: Cancer mechanisms as therapy targets

Credits 3
The course provides a comprehensive overview of the core aspects of cancer biology. The emphasis will be placed on the molecular mechanisms of cancer pathophysiology at the nanoscale resolution- such as molecular complexes that regulate DNA damage and repair; cell division, death and senescence as well as on system biology, microevolution of tumors, and interaction between tumor and the host. The course will include in-depth analysis of the signal transduction mechanisms in cancer; and whether those mechanisms are druggable targets.
