7.012 Introduction to Biology, Fall 2001
(2001-12)
Cell biology, immunology, neurobiology, and an exploration into current research in cancer, genomics, and molecular medicine.
7.342 Reading the Blueprint of Life: Transcription, Stem Cells and Differentiation, Fall 2006
(2006-12)
In this course, we will address how transcriptional regulators both prohibit and drive differentiation during the course of development. How does a stem cell know when to remain a stem cell and when to become a specific ...
7.340 Regenerative Medicine: from Bench to Bedside, Spring 2010
(2010-06)
Regenerative medicine involves the repair and regeneration of tissues for therapeutic purposes, such as replacing bone marrow in leukemia, cartilage in osteoarthritis or cells of the heart after a heart attack. In this ...
7.349 Stem Cells: A Cure or Disease?, Spring 2011
(2011-06)
Have you ever considered going to a pharmacy to order some new cardiomyocytes (heart muscle cells) for your ailing heart? It might sound crazy, but recent developments in stem cell science have made this concept not so ...
7.013 Introductory Biology, Spring 2005
(2005-06)
The MIT Biology Department core courses, 7.012, 7.013, and 7.014, all cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Biological ...
7.342 Cancer Biology: From Basic Research to the Clinic, Fall 2004
(2004-12)
This course is one of many Advanced Undergraduate Seminars offered by the Biology Department at MIT. These seminars are tailored for students with an interest in using primary research literature to discuss and ...
7.341 Bench to Bedside: Molecularly Targeted Therapies in Blood Disorders and Malignancy, Fall 2009
(2009-12)
Where do new drugs and treatments come from? This class will take you from the test tubes and mice of the laboratory to the treatment of patients with deadly blood disorders. Students will learn how to think as a scientist ...
7.342 Pluripotent Stem Cells and Genome Engineering for Modeling Human Diseases, Spring 2015
(2015-06)
One of the major priorities in biomedical research is understanding the molecular events that establish the complex processes involved in human development and the relationships of these processes to human disease and ...
7.013 Introductory Biology, Spring 2006
(2006-06)
The MIT Biology Department core courses, 7.012, 7.013, and 7.014, all cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Biological ...
7.342 Developmental and Molecular Biology of Regeneration, Spring 2008
(2008-06)
How does a regenerating animal "know" what's missing? How are stem cells or differentiated cells used to create new tissues during regeneration? In this class we will take a comparative approach to explore this ...
