Courses for this semester
This is a practical paper which will enable the students to apply the knowledge of immunology and molecular biology in practical field.
This paper deals with the basic knowledge of buffer, pH and concept of acids and bases, Different laws of thermodynamics and their significances, different types of bonds, quantum mechanics and structure of atom and folding of proteins and biophysics of cell membrane.
This molecular biology course will explore the interface between genetics and biochemistry. Students will delve into the concepts underlying how biomolecules interact in various parts of the cell, focusing heavily on DNA replication, transcription, and translation.
Immunology is a field of biology that deals with prevention and understanding the basic mechanism of occurrence of disease. This helps to develop better strategies and therapeutical measures to disease management and cure. The theory of immunology revolves around recognition between self and non-self antigens and the immune response generated thereafter. The course would include cells and structure of the immune system, Antibodies, antigen antibody interaction, immunodeficiency, transplantation immunology and autoimmune disorders. It is an interesting branch of science and deals with the defence mechanisms including innate and acquired immunity that helps an organism to combat its susceptibility to foreign organisms, material, etc.
The study of developmental biology includes basic knowledge of reproductive mechanisms of plants and animals. The study helps to understand gametogenesis, embryology, fertilization, post fertilization events, organogenesis, and production of adult organism. This subject provides the fundamental knowledge for animal biotechnology and stem cell research.
Courses for this semester
