3-Day Hands-On Workshop on Cellular Metabolism: Glycolysis & Krebs Cycle

This workshop helps participants understand, visualize, and apply core metabolic pathways through interactive learning, simple laboratory-linked models, and presentation-based assessment. It bridges theory with experimental relevance for deeper conceptual clarity.

Day 1: Metabolic Pathway Fundamentals

Concepts Covered

• Overview of cellular metabolism

• Glycolysis: steps, enzymes, regulation, and energy yield

• Krebs (TCA) cycle: key reactions and metabolic significance

• Link between catabolism, anabolism, and energy production

Interactive Learning

• Use of pathway flashcards for enzymes, intermediates, and cofactors

• Stepwise pathway walkthrough and memorization strategies

• Concept quiz to reinforce understanding

Skills Gained

• Logical understanding of metabolic flow

• Improved recall of pathway steps and regulation points

Day 2: Laboratory Link to Metabolism

Concepts Covered

• Relationship between metabolic pathways and observable biological processes

• Anaerobic vs aerobic metabolism (conceptual comparison)

Hands-On / Demonstration Experiment

• Glucose breakdown model experiment, such as:

  • Yeast fermentation with CO₂ balloon inflation, or

  • pH change during fermentation

• Observation and recording of metabolic outcomes

Learning Outcome

• Visualizing metabolism through simple experimental models

• Connecting biochemical pathways to real biological activity

Day 3: Metabolic Integration & Scientific Communication

Concepts Covered

• Integration of glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and other pathways

• Metabolic regulation and pathway interconnections

Hands-On Activities

• Metabolism map building

  • Integrating glycolysis, TCA, and key links

• Writing a pathway summary

  • Inputs, outputs, regulation, and energy balance

• Participant presentations of metabolic maps and summaries

Outcome

• Improved conceptual clarity of metabolism

• Ability to explain pathways visually and verbally

• Feedback and discussion session
