COURSE I: Cell Membranes and Fats

A meta pattern in biological systems are boundaries that create an inside and outside, a self and an-other. The phospholipid membrane is the boundary that defines the cell and its organelles. Here we get to know in some detail, the fats and proteins that are crucial to its structural make-up.  This then offers important insights into what is needed to maintain the health of the body’s membranes, the downstream consequences and the causes of their disruption.
