Kursens syfte To increase the understanding of mechanotransduction in cancer in development, and the different approaches and methods available for studying mechanotransduction.
Kursens lärandemål Upon completion of the course, the doctoral students can understand and describe basic concepts of mechanotransduction at the cellular level. The students can describe the roles of mechanotranscription in normal physiology. The students can identify and critically evaluate experimental methods appropriate to providing mechanical signals to biological systems. The students can identify and critically evaluate experimental methods appropriate to measuring mechanical properties of biological systems.
Kursens innehåll Basic concepts of mechanotransduction in normal physiology and at the cellular level. Recent advances in mechanotransduction in cancer and embryonic development. Experimental methods used to study mechanotransduction in cancer and development.
