Biochemistry II

This course will cover the same material as Biochemistry II on campus – metabolism with a focus on glycolysis, gluconeogenesis, citric acid cycle, et al – but will take advantage of London by introducing students to experts in the field stationed in England. Outside of their lecture time students will be introduced to pioneering scientific and medical work in the UK. The course, taught by UM faculty member Susan Pedigo, is intended for pre-med and other science majors. Students will earn 3 hours of credit for CHEM 473.
