This course will explore selected advanced topics in mammalian cell biology, including membrane structure and function, signal transduction, organelle biogenesis, stress sensing and cell death. Reference will be made to human diseases caused by the defective function of these processes. A major emphasis of this course will be on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) methods, both in the modern study of cell biology and throughout the course itself.
