Learning objectives
The aim of the course is to provide the students with the thermodynamic concepts necessary to the knowledge and the understanding of the interconversion of the energy in biological systems (bioenergetics) as well the ligand-biomacromolecule interactions. The molecular basis of protein-ligand complex ormation will be provided together with the biochemical basis of drug action.
Learning results
At the end of the course, the student will have acquired extensive knowledge and deep understanding of the interactions between ligands and biological macromolecules. Such knowledge will be applied to the interpretation of the molecular mechanisms of drug action.
