Human Biology I contains part of the basic knowledge in the Health Sciences that an undergraduate dentistry student needs to acquire.
The aim is for the student to achieve a basic understanding of the molecular bases of life, describing the structure and function of biomolecules, their metabolism and regulation.
Knowledge of Biology and Chemistry at sixth-form level.
The contents of the course are structured in 3 main groups: biomolecules, enzymology and metabolism.
These will be supported by Clinical Cases (CC) and self-learning material (MAP).
