Biochem Course

What will I learn?

Embark on a journey to understand how cells get their energy with our Basic Biochemistry Course. This course is made for those working in biomedicine who want to understand energy use in the body even better. We'll explore how the body uses oxygen (aerobic) and doesn't use oxygen (anaerobic) to make energy, look closely at the electron transport chain, and become experts in glycolysis. You'll learn to draw out diagrams of how these processes work and how to control them effectively. We'll discover how the citric acid cycle helps make ATP (the body's energy currency) and how this knowledge can help in making new medicines and treating diseases. Gain valuable, practical knowledge to improve your skills.
