Topic

The course helps to evolve good practical skills. It gives an overview on the techniques that are used in the basic biochemical-, biomedical research, both in the industrial area as well as in clinical research. The main focus is on solving of different scientific problems and through that a solution orientated education.

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

Maximum of 15 % absence allowed

Mid-term exams

Oral presentations should be kept by every student on the 5th or 7th week from an optional topic, in the from of a ppt presentation. The theme of the presentation should have a biochemical connection, and should be adjusted with the subject leader.
A written exam is going to be written in the 14th week of the semester that screens the basic methodological knowledge, and the capability of solving scientific problems. In case of unsuccesful exam, it can be retaken in the first two weeks of the exam periode.

Making up for missed classes

There is no possibility to retake the practice.
