About the Course
This course describes the basic nature if viruses and basic concepts of how they replicate. It looks at traditional methods for propagating and assaying viruses as well as methods to identify and follow them in individuals and populations. It will also look at how we can use molecular genetics to learn how viruses work in molecular detail.
On successful completion of the course, learners will be able to:
1. Recognise unifying principles but diversity of virus structure and function
2. Illustrate how we can detect, identify and track viruses in individuals and populations
3. Recognise the importance of traditional and molecular genetics to understanding viruses
This is an intermediate series of courses intended for both clinical and non-clinical scientists who want to update their skills for work in clinical, academic, and pharmaceutical/bioscience industries, and is developed and delivered by experts working on viruses and novel vaccines.
To be successful in this series of courses, you should have basic knowledge in biology, genetics, microbiology or related fields.

This is a really great course. I'm really liking this specilisation as it is giving me a comprehensive overiew about both Virology as well as Vaccinology. It's a very well organised specilisation.
