Knolewdge acquired:
The course offers a deep knowledge of both structure and function of important biomolecules that mediates several basic biologic processes. It also offers the correct perspective for the bioinformatic investigation of system-level processes using modern methods and techniques.
Competence acquired
The student will learn the appropriate methodologies and approaches for the study of biological processes. It will also learn the usage of bioinformatics for data collection and integration.
Skills acquired (at the end of the course):
Use of bioinformatic tools to mine and investigate signalling and metabolic pathways.
Knowledge of important bioprocesses in several types of organisms.
Total hours of the course (including the time spent in attending lectures, seminars, private study, examinations, etc...): 150
Hours reserved to private study and other indivual formative activities: 90
Contact hours for: Lectures (hours): 24 hours
Contact hours for: Laboratory (hours): 24
Frequency of lectures, practice and lab:
the frequency is strongly suggested.
