Course Overview
What this course covers
A Cellular Medicine Perspective on Health, Aging, and Disease
Cell Code is a structured walk through ten core molecular pathways that shape Cellular Medicine. For each pathway, the course presents twenty questions, beginning with foundational mechanisms and moving into applied clinical relevance, followed by an explanation that walks through the correct answer and why each alternative fails.
- AMPK Pathway — The Cellular Energy Sensor
- mTOR Pathway — The Growth and Anabolism Switch
- NRF2 Pathway — The Master Regulator of Antioxidant Defense
- NF — κB Pathway – The Central Switch of Inflammation
- PGC — 1α Pathway – The Master Regulator of Mitochondrial Biogenesis
- FOXO Transcription Factors — The Healthspan Regulators
- Insulin/IGF — 1 Signaling Pathway – The Metabolic Growth Axis
- Mitochondrial Dynamics — Fusion, Fission, and Mitophagy
- and more
What you'll explore
- Identify the core function of each of the ten molecular pathways covered and the regulatory inputs that drive their activity.
- Distinguish how each pathway interacts with adjacent pathways to coordinate energy, growth, redox, and inflammatory responses at the cellular level.
- Apply the mechanistic framework from each pathway to clinical reasoning about aging, metabolic disease, neurodegeneration, and longevity.
