Medical Virology
X142 (3 semester units in Public Health)
45 hours CE credit: BRN provider #00226
Learn about Marburg, West Nile, HIV, flu, and most other viruses of current medical importance. You study the entire process of virus-mediated disease by first building a foundation in the molecular understanding of the virus infection cycle and then focusing on public health monitoring, disease processes, and treatments. This course is recommended for people with an interest in the medical, academic, or industrial fields of public health and/or molecular biology of viruses.
Prerequisite: A year of college-level general biology for majors.
