Course Overview

The Molecular Biology - Part 3: RNA Processing and Translation course by edX is the third and final part of their Molecular Biology programme. In this programme, you will learn about the mRNA translation to protein, a crucial portion of Biology’s central dogma. You will also see how RNA splicing or RNA turnover affects the outcome of this translation.

RNA processing mechanisms also influence gene expression. You will learn about these mechanisms in extensive detail with the Molecular Biology - Part 3: RNA Processing and Translation training course. It is an eight-week, advanced level, self-paced learning programme that will help you master design skills in biological experimenting, and enhance your scientific thinking. You need to study only four to eight hours every week.

The faculty includes professors from the Department of Biology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Each instructor for the Molecular Biology - Part 3: RNA Processing and Translation programme is an expert in his/her respective domain. They will deliver video lectures in English. Video transcripts are also available in two languages: English and Chinese.
