Molecular genetics has drawn together the more traditional sciences of genetics, biochemistry, microbiology and cell biology. This unit is designed to enable the student to gain an understanding of the structure and function of genetic information (i.e. DNA). How DNA determines and regulates the structure and function of proteins, cells, and ultimately the organism as a whole will be studied. The emphasis is on understanding rather than rote learning and this will be reflected in the style of the continuous assessments -- Course Website
