• BIOL 310: Biology of Cancer

  3.00 Credits

  Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

  
  The prevalence and profound impact of cancer on society has prompted intensive research, leading to numerous advances in cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Despite these efforts, cancer still poses a unique biomedical puzzle as it is now recognized that cancer is not a single disease, but a collection of disorders with many manifestations that affect every tissue in the human body. This course aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to the biology and pathology of cancer through interactive lectures and student-led discussions. There are two hours of lecture and three hours of laboratory per week.
