Full Description
This exam examines the biological pathways that are integral to both aging processes and the development of age-related diseases. Students will evaluate pathways such as apoptosis, autophagy, and cellular senescence.
Understanding these pathways is essential for characterizing the biological underpinnings of aging and contributes to the development of preventive and therapeutic strategies aimed at age-related conditions.
Assessment will focus on students’ ability to articulate the interplay between these pathways and age-related diseases, as well as their implications for research and healthcare. Verbal assessments will require in-depth explanation and critical thinking.
Participants should be prepared to discuss landmark studies that have shaped our understanding of these pathways and their relationships to aging.
Sample Questions
- What are the key biological pathways implicated in aging and age-related diseases?
- How does cellular senescence contribute to age-related disease mechanisms?
