The equivalent of 7,5 credits Biochemistry.Objectives
The aim of the course is to give basic knowledge and laboratory training in cell biology.After completing the course the student will be able to:
- describe the cell structure, function and regulatory mechanisms
- describe key concepts in molecular cell biology
- know the main cell biology laboratory methods
- use basic laboratory techniques in cell biology
Content
The course gives basic knowledge in cell biology and laboratory training in cellbiological methods.Lectures and group excerises address:
- cells and their components
- biological membranes
- transport across membranes
- extracellular environment
- cell proliferation
- cell differentiation and tissue formation
- cell communication
- stem cells and cloning
Laborations deal with key cell biological methods.
Formats and requirements for examination
