Did you ever wonder what they do to get the lab results ordered by your doctor?  Have you wondered how medicine gets developed?   Maybe you are curious what a biomedical scientist does?  

Each week a video lecture will be shared.  In the first four weeks, the videos will focus on the method and principle behind some assays (lab tests) in the hospital or reference biomedical labs (Hematology, Clinical Chemistry, Blood Bank, and Clinical Microbiology).  In the fifth and sixth weeks, I will discuss molecular biology techniques that focus on recombinant DNA.  The seventh week, I will cover how vaccines are made and how antibody titers are done.  In the last week we will go over the steps in drug discovery.  For each week, I will either present a case study or thought questions that learners can discuss via chat on the classroom page. In addition, each week we will have online quiz challenges (Quizlet, Kahoot, Blooket, and Gimkit) reviewing what was discussed in the lecture.

Please note this class is also offered as a weekly ongoing class or as a multi-day class (over 4 days for 2 weeks).
