Thiscourse takes the foundational knowledge of carbohydrate and lipid biology as astarting point to explore their functions as major biomolecules within cells,association with health and diseases, and applications in everyday foods,pharmaceuticals, skincare products, and industrial goods. The course not onlyintroduces the primary types and basic structures of carbohydrates and lipidsbut also delves deeply into their synthesis, metabolism, mechanisms of action,and their significant relevance in biology. Beyond imparting fundamentalknowledge of carbohydrate and lipid biology, this course goes further to guidestudents in understanding the common methods and cutting-edge technologies usedin carbohydrate and lipid research. As a result, the primary objective of thiscourse is to help students establish a strong theoretical foundation in carbohydrateand lipid biology while igniting their passion for research in this field.Moreover, we are committed to nurturing students' research skills, includingtopic design, experimental techniques, scientific model development, andEnglish expression. This ensures that they can keep pace with the scientificfrontier, laying a solid foundation for future learning and research.
