The Systems Biology focuses on the synthetic biology, genetics, cell interactions, and evolutionary dynamics. You will learn all of these topics in this course which focuses on cellular and population-level systems biology.
In this [course_title], you are taught how cellular systems work to understand the important concepts of genetic switches and network evolution. You will also know the models of pattern formation and evolutionary in population-level systems biology.
Assessment
This course does not involve any written exams. Students need to answer 5 assignment questions to complete the course, the answers will be in the form of written work in pdf or word. Students can write the answers in their own time. Each answer needs to be 200 words (1 Page). Once the answers are submitted, the tutor will check and assess the work.
