Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine
First-year medical students complete a required, two-quarter sequence in medical biochemistry, the educational goals of which are to understand the major biochemical concepts of cell, tissue, and organ function in health and disease. These goals are achieved through lectures, small group case studies, and readings in the biomedical literature. Faculty members accept students into a research elective program.
