PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY FOR THE LIFE SCIENCE
(objectives)
THE MAJOR GOALS FOR THIS COURSE ARE CENTERED AROUND ACQUIRING A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF THERMODYNAMIC AND KINETIC THEORIES, APPLIED TO BIOCHEMICAL PROBLEMS. THE COURSE WILL START BY THE RIGOROUS DEFINITION OF THERMODYNAMIC PRINCIPLES AND STATE FUNCTIONS, THEN THE STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO APPLY THESE AND RELATED CONCEPTS TO UNDERSTAND THE PHYSICO-CHEMICAL MECHANISMS OF THE MAIN BIOLOGICAL TRANSFORMATIONS.
