Kurzbeschreibung | General Biology I: Organismic biology to teach the basic principles of classical and molecular genetics, evolutionary biology and phylogeny. General Biology II: Molecular biology approach to teach the basic principles of biochemistry, cell biology, cgenetics, evolutionary biology and form and function of vacular plants. | ||||
Lernziel | General Biology I: The understanding of basic principles of biology (inheritance, evolution and phylogeny) and an overview of the diversity of life. General Biology II: The understanding basic concepts of biology: the hierarchy of the structural levels of biological organisation, with particular emphasis on the cell and its molecular functions, the fundamentals of metabolism and molecular genetics, as well as form and function of vascular plants. | ||||

Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Basic general and organic chemistry This is a virtual self-study lecture for non-German speakers of the "Allgemeine Biology I (551-0001-00L) and "Allgemeine Biology II (551-0002-00L) lectures. The exam will be written jointly with the participants of this lecture. | ||||
551-1300-00L | Cause and Consequences of Unstable Genomes Number of participants limited to 12. The enrolment is done by the D-BIOL study administration. | 6 KP | 7G | J. Fernandes de Matos, Y. Barral, C. Beyer, K. Bomblies, M. Jagannathan, R. Kroschewski | |
Kurzbeschreibung | The course will introduce students to key concepts and laboratory research within the broad field of "Genome stability". | ||||
Lernziel | Students will learn to design, apply and evaluate current research strategies in a wide range of modern research areas encompassing the broad field of "Genome stability". | ||||
Inhalt | The course will consist of lectures, practical laboratory work in small groups, informal progress report sessions, and preparation and presentation of a poster. Lectures will be presented mainly at the start of the course to expose students to key concepts and techniques in the field. Students will team into small groups and work in one laboratory for the rest of the course. Students will meet regularly for informal "progress report" discussions of their projects. Student performance will be assessed based on the quality of their practical work, a written exam on frontal lecture material, and a poster presentation of their practical work. | ||||
Literatur | Documentation and recommended literature in the form of review articles and selected primary literature will be provided during the course. | ||||
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | This course will be taught in English. |
