The textbook is Fundamentals
of Biochemistry by Voet, Voet, and Pratt, available in the Bookstore.
GBCH 601 is being taught in coordination with an optional laboratory course, GBCH602, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Lab. The lab meets Thursday from 12:00-4:00PM.
Lectures will be derived from a variety of sources,
including the suggested textbook.
*Nov. 6 may be used as a makeup day if classes are cancelled by the university. Check http://www.tulane.edu/~sos/, Tulane's Emergency Information Page for official notification of school closings.
