CBIO-4108 Bioquimica de Proteinas

This course covers new topics related to protein bio-chemistry research. It begins by clarifying basic enzymatic kinetics concepts to further concentrate in the latest theories on the origin of the catalytic power of enzymes. Then, students are introduced to the techniques used to purify proteins and the techniques used are discussed to determine protein structures. The student will learn to use computer tools to represent bio-molecule structures. Lastly, topics like artificial protein design and structural protein characteristics isolated from organisms that live in extreme environments are addressed.

CBIO-4800 Seminarios de Investigacion

This course offers the opportunities to carry out guided reading aimed at concentration in the area of research selected by students. The process is carried out under the guidance of the thesis director, although the topics and rating means must be previously approved by the Graduate Coordination. Likewise, once a week, students meet with the course coordinator to present the thesis progress or to conduct a presentation related to their research team. This seminar is open for any member of the Science Faculty. The course is especially recommended for those graduate students who were not able to adequately schedule the two compulsory courses of their main area within their schedule.
