In this course we will study the cell (minimum unit of life) and its components. We will study several key cellular features : membranes, genomes, channels and receptors. We will apply the laws of physics to develop models to make quantitative and predicti ...
Bioluminescence imaging and data analysis Splinkerette PCR (to analyze genomic insertion site of a transgene).The students will obtain theoretical and practical insight into embryonic stem cell biology and the study of gene expression fluctuations in sin ...
The goal of the course is to guide students through the essential aspects of molecular neuroscience and neurodegenerative diseases. The student will gain the ability to dissect the molecular basis of disease in the nervous system in order to begin to under ...
This course will cover the fundamental principles governing life and the living world. Topics will include the diversity of living organisms, cellular biology, genetics, evolution, and ecology. This course provides a foundation in biology, fostering critic ...
Students will learn essentials of cell and developmental biology with an engineering mind set, with an emphasis on animal systems and quantitative approaches. ...
The theoretical part of this course covers classical genetics and contemporary genomics. Because bioinformatics has become important for genomic research, the course also includes practical applications to genomic analyses using Python, including group pro ...
After a short introduction to basic molecular biology and genomic technologies, this course covers the most useful statistical concepts and methods for the analysis of genomic data. ...
Presentation of selected signalling pathways with emphasis on both the mechanism of action of the molecules involved, molecular interactions and the role of their spatio-temporal organization within the cell, considering cellular dimensions and conditions. ...
Chemical biology is a key discipline in biomedical research for drug discovery, synthetic biology and protein functional annotation. We will give a broad perspective of the field ranging from seminal classical experiments to state-of-the-art approaches to ...
This course will take place from 3rd to 7th June 2024.It will introduce the workflows and techniques that are used for the analysis of bulk and single cell RNA-seq data. It will empower students to understand and analyze their own data. ...
