Computer modeling is a powerful method to understand modern
problems in biology and biochemistry. In this course you
will learn how to use the computer to model fundamental
biochemical processes (equilibria, acid-base relationships,
kinetics) and to explore biological processes (metabolism,
membrane transport, macromolecular structure). This course
aims at developing your problem solving skills in biological
sciences. Independent study and exploration are greatly
encouraged.
