Cell Signaling

About
The course will emphasize on the fact that all living beings respond to environmental as well as cues initiated from other living organisms. Our growth (post-partum and embryonic more so) is well connected to responses we mount to the signaling. In this Course I will primarily focus on how living beings engage in signaling to stay healthy and grow normally. The focus will largely be on the receptors prevalent in the animal kingdom primarily in Mammals, but I will also introduce aspects of microbial and plant signaling events.
Prerequisites: A course in Cell Biology and Molecular Biology
