| SECTIONING | This unit is divided into 2 sections: |
| MODULES | This unit is a module of: |
The course consist of two modules: Propedeutical Biochemistry and Biochemistry, and is divided into two parts: a part of lessons in presence and one part, as support of the first, consisting of online classes.
The first part of the course aims to provide the basis of general and organic chemistry to address Biochemistry, the second part of the course. The aim of this second part is both the acquisition of knowledge about the structure and function of proteins and enzymes proteins as the main pathways of carbohydrate, fat, and protein catabolism.
Lectures in presence, supported / supplemented by recorded lectures that the students can access online through the platform AulaWeb

II SEMESTER – STARTING FROM MARCH 2017 |
All class schedules are posted on the EasyAcademy portal.

Oral examination |
For the units with video lessons, self-assessment tests, which are designed to stimulate students in learning, are provided. Self-assessment tests are useful also to verify the correct understanding, facilitating the preparation of the final exam, done in the presence.
