Catalogue data
| Abstract | This introductory Laboratory course introduces the student to the entire range of classical and modern molecular biosciences. In the second year (Praktikum GL Bio II) the students will perform three praktikum days in: - Animal Models - Plant Biology (total of 6 experiments) Each experiment takes one full day. |
| Learning objective | Introduction to theoretical and experimental biology General Praktikum-information and course material: Moodle The general Praktikum information (Assignment list, Instructions and Schedule & Performance Sheet) will also be sent to the students directly (E-mail). |
| Content | The class is divided into two blocks: Animal Models and Plant Biology. One block lasts three weeks. ANIMAL MODELS: - Tissue structure and biology - Mouse anatomy and histology - Tissue repair and cancer PLANT BIOLOGY: - Phytohormones and other growth factors - Molecular biology of systemic gene silencing - Transport and storage - Literature reading and presentation |
| Lecture notes | Laboratory manuals All scripts and additional course information is available on Moodle. |
| Prerequisites / Notice | THE PRAKTIKUM RULES: Your attendance is obligatory and you have to attend all 6 Praktikum days. Absences are only acceptable if you are able to provide a Doctor’s certificate. The original Dr's certificate has to be given to Dr. M. Gstaiger (HPM F43) within five days of the absence of the Praktikum day. If there will be any exceptional or important situations then you should directly contact the Director of Studies of D-Biol, who will decide if you are allowed to miss a Praktikum day or not. HIGHLY IMPORTANT!! 1. Due to the increased number of students, the official Praktikum registration has to be done, using myStudies, preferably at the end of HS21 but not later than 2.2.2022. 2. Later registration is NOT possible and can NOT be accepted! 3. The course registration for FS22 is usually possible at the end of HS21 and you will obtain an E-mail from the Rectorate when the course registration using myStudies is possible. Students can register for a practice group via myStudies. As soon as the course unit is registered in myStudies, a text box appears indicating that a group can be selected. Accordingly, students can select a group in the next step. If more than 180 students register, the surplus students will be placed on a waiting list and then allocated by the course responsible. The Praktikum GL BioII FS22 will take place during the following days and therefore, you have to make sure already now that you do not have any other activities & commitments during these days: PRAKTIKUM DAYS DURING FS22 (Monday): 21.02.; 28.02.; 07.03.; 14.03.; 21.03.; 28.03.; 04.04.; 11.04.; 02.05.; 09.05.; 16.05.; 23.05.; No Praktikum during the Easter break: 18.04-29.04. |
