Description
The MIT Biology Department core courses, 7.012, 7.013, and 7.014, all cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Biological function at the molecular level is particularly emphasized and covers the structure and regulation of genes, as well as, the structure and synthesis of proteins, how these molecules are integrated into cells, and how these cells are integrated into multicellular systems and organisms. In addition, each version of the subject has its own distinctive material. 7.012 focuses on the exploration of current research in cell biology, immunology, neurobiology, genomics, and molecular medicine.

Great!!!
This professor really knows what he talking about! I find all these lectures fascinating , and if you really listen you can learn alot!
It's a portable version of MIT OCW
Now I can listen to my class lectures when I don't have my computer, wherever I go I can learn about biology. Lander rocks, yo!
