CTS641B - Problem Based Translational Research in Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias II
Course ID
040734
Course Description
CTS 641 B is designed as a problem-based learning experience focused on developing an understanding that Alzheimer's disease and related dementias are complex diseases with different etiologies and progression trajectories. Thus, one size therapy will not fit all and will not fit anyone for all time; requiring a portfolio of therapeutic interventions that target genotypes (including chromosomal sex) and phenotype (etiology and stage of AD). Building on the information and projects developed by students in CTS 641 A, students will dive further into the drug development process, by leveraging computational tools in discovering and designing novel compounds. Students will also be exposed to the foundations of designing precision clinical trials, documenting their discoveries in accordance with requirements for FDA filings, and finally receive instruction in the foundations of commercialization.
