Topic

The course is aimed to support the successful accomplishment of the semester exam of the compulsory course "Biochemistry" (and in part that of the final exam "Medical Biochemistry").
In the classroom the brief summary of the theory related to the actual topic will be followed by discussing explicit questions (multiple choice and open questions as well) in order to deepen the understanding of the material along with the preparation for the written exam.
In order to help preparation the topics of this course will discuss the lectures and practices of the main course, but shifted in time.
