Learning outcomes (Training objectives)

To know the general design of human metabolism, the way in which chemical energy is obtained and the chemical transformations that occur in the pathways of intermediary metabolism at the cellular level and in an integrated way in the human organism. - To understand the main mechanisms of metabolic regulation. - Analyse the mechanisms of cell signalling and their effect on metabolic pathways. - Interpret, evaluate, process and synthesise data and information in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. - Acquire the necessary skills to experiment and interpret data from observations and measurements in biochemistry and molecular biology. Handle safely: biological material, reagents, instruments and application devices. Know how to search for, analyse and understand scientific texts on biochemistry and molecular biology and know how to write, present and defend scientific reports both in writing and orally before an audience. Recognise and value biochemical processes in daily life and correctly use inductive and deductive methods in the field of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, relating them to other disciplines of Medicine.
