Cancer Biology (CBNS 150) - The origin, development and treatment of cancer are explored with emphasis on molecular mechanisms. Topics such as oncogenes, tumor suppressors, cell cycle, apoptosis and hereditary and environmental factors are discussed. Three one-hour lectures plus one discussion. Offered in Spring quarter. Prerequisite: Molecular Biology
Molecular Biology (CMDB 2021) - Dr. Sladek teaches one half of this graduate level course in Molecular Biology. The emphasis is on the regulation of gene expression and the experimental tools used to decipher molecular mechanisms involved. Topics covered unclude th egenome/proteome, transcription initiation, RNS processing and RNA interference. Co-instructor Dr. Dan Straus teaches chromatin modification, genetic diseases, growth factors and carcinogenesis, again with an emphasis on the regulation of gene expression.
Special Topics in Biochemistry/ Transcription Regulation (BCHM 240) - journal club covering the latest articles in mechanisms of transcription regulation, joint with other labs at UCR studying transcription regulation.
Dr. Sladek frequently gives lectures at elementary schools and local organizations (e.g., American Cancer Society, American Heart Association) on a variety of topics - from "DNA & Protein" to the "Role of Research in Cancer Treatment".
