概述
The main objective of this course is to help students understand the definition, physiological significance, and regulatory mechanism of aging in the context of Biology by introducing the latest discoveries in Aging Biology. These include the evolutionary and physiological theories of aging, the discovery of longevity and aging genes, and the molecular genetics of aging regulation and its regulatory mechanism at the molecular level.
