The aim of this course is to illustrate the modern methodologies applied at the chemistry/biology interface to observe, probe or interfere with relevant biological processes. The application of such methodologies to pre-clinical drug discovery will also be discussed.
The course will allow the students to: adapt to the ever-evolving chemistry field, especially in synergy with physics and biology; individually study and critically evaluate frontier research from primary literature; understand how to interfere with complex biological processes via small molecular probes or biorthogonal chemistry; improve their written and oral communication skills by means of individual or group presentation of selected case studies.
