  • Course Description
    本課程內容以最近5年膜運輸研究(membrane trafficking)相關的期刊論文為主。課程會依據以下部分,找尋適當的期刊論文研讀與討論 1.Introduction: membrane trafficking 2.Biomembrane Structure – -General Mechanism of Vesicular Trafficking -Studying Membrane Remodeling 3.Endocytic trafficking - Endocytosis, Recycling, and Endosomal transport - Exosome Intracellular Trafficking and Neurodegeneration 4.Autophagy and Lysosome 5.Pathology of Membrane trafficking and Therapeutics
  • Course Objective
    This course is based on lectures and discussions on recent research in the field of membrane trafficking. Lectures and discussions explore the pathology, molecular mechanisms, and therapeutic aspects of membrane trafficking. Topics include Biomembrane Structure, General Mechanism of Vesicular Trafficking, Studying Membrane Remodeling, Endocytosis, Recycling, Endosomal transport, Exosome, Autophagy, Lysosome, etc. Through literature reading and group discussion, the students should understand the recent discoveries in the field of membrane trafficking and its influence in human diseases.
