中文简介:
在本课程中,我们将探讨病原性慢性疾病这一新兴领域。这一领域的研究重新定义了一些主要疾病的病因,如溃疡。通过阅读主要的研究文献,我们将了解病原体致病的分子机制。我们将通过一个简短的病例研究来介绍我们所涉及的疾病。我们将讨论幽门螺杆菌和胃病,HPV和宫颈癌,丙型肝炎病毒和肝病,Epstein-Barr病毒和淋巴瘤,巨细胞病毒和动脉粥样硬化,以及糖尿病和多发性硬化。我们将研究对抗微生物的技术进展,并探索慢性感染和炎症新的治疗策略的未来方向。这门课程是麻省理工学院生物系提供的许多高等本科生研讨会之一。这些研讨会是为有兴趣利用初级研究文献在高度互动的环境中讨论和学习当前生物研究的学生而设计的。许多本科生高级研讨会的讲师都是对教学有浓厚兴趣的博士后科学家。
课程简介: In this course we will explore the new emerging field of pathogen-induced chronic diseases. Work in this field has redefined the causes of some major disorders, such as ulcers. By reading the primary research literature we will learn about the molecular mechanisms through which pathogens cause disease. The diseases that we cover will be introduced with a short patient case study. We will discuss the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and gastric disease, HPV and cervical cancer, hepatitis C virus and liver disease, Epstein-Barr virus and lymphoma, Cytomegalovirus and atherosclerosis, as well as diabetes and multiple sclerosis. We will study technical advances in the fight against microbes and explore future directions for new treatment strategies of chronic infections and inflammation. This course is one of many Advanced Undergraduate Seminars offered by the Biology Department at MIT. These seminars are tailored for students with an interest in using primary research literature to discuss and learn about current biological research in a highly interactive setting. Many instructors of the Advanced Undergraduate Seminars are postdoctoral scientists with a strong interest in teaching.
