Aim:
After the course the student know how to:
  • plan and experimentally execute a project in molecular biology
  • plan and experimentally execute a project in biological measurement
  • Understand and evaluate experimentally determined data through critical thinking of scientific literature and available experimental data
The student has also comprehensive practical experience of methods in molecular biology as well as in biological measurements


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Biochemistry 2

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Supplementary courses:
Protein Chemistry, Protein Engineering.

Organisation:
The course is divided in two separate projects in Biological measurements (UPG3) and molecular biology (UPG2). Both projects are laboratory intensive and are presented as written reports for each project.

Course contents:
The experimental part are based on earlier knowledge from courses in Biochemistry. The main part of this course is experimental and will give insights in modern experimental techniques in molecular biology and biological measurements.

Course literature:
Laboratory manual from the department as well rewievs and scientific articles within the field.
