knowledge and under-standing: Knowledge of the principles of cellular biology applied to the development biology. Knowledge of the principles of inter- and intra-cellular communication, of the main signal transduction pathways; Of molecular mechanisms in regulating the expression of genes development-related into: i) differentiation; ii) de-differentiation; iii) migration, and iv) cell survival. Embryonic and adult stem cells, regeneration.

Applying knowledge and understanding: In addition to the knowledge acquired through the study of Cellular and Developmental Biology, students will understand and explore the applicative potential of matter in organ and tissue regeneration, stem cell and tumor differentiation control in the field of bioedicine and Translational medicine.
