4 ePBLM Organization Sickle Cell Disease Red blood cells: structure and function, glycolysis (2,3-BPG), pentose phosphate pathway, glutathione Introduction to genetics (basic principles) Introduction to molecular biology of gene expression: transcription, translation, protein processing Hemoglobin structure: HbA (  2  2 ), HbF (  2  2 ), HbA 2 (  2  2 ), HbS; overview of hemoglobin function Complete blood count: RBC parameter (Hct, Hb content, MCV, MCHC) and WBCs Structure and function of the spleen Pathogenesis and natural history of sickle cell disease Introduction to child development: Denver development chart, normal milestones Introduction to immunology: cause of inflammation and pain (cytokines and phagocytes)

5 The Best and Worst at Times Best Features Integration with other disciplines/clinical medicine overlap/redundancy of topics clinical relevance low priority Worst Features Perceived orphan topics Competition with other disciplines Non-biochemistry resources
