Course content
Chemical biology is a way of understanding biology as a fusion of organic, inorganic, physical, and analytical chemistry. A broad range of disciplines from biochemistry to chemical biology will be discussed focusing on the background, history, and the methodology of it which contributed to development of chemical biology.
Purpose of class
Understanding about chemical biology with related broad science.
Goals and objectives
  1. Understanding for the elements and the molecule of which participates in the biological systems.
  2. Understanding for the structure and activity relationship of the molecules in the biological systems.
  3. Understanding for the way of maitain the biological system
