Zell- und Gewebekultur

• After completing the module, the students will be able to present the current literature on a research area in a summarized form. By presenting and discussing their results from the laboratory course they are able to critically question research results. In the practical course, students have to work on sophisticated projects which need competences such as teamwork, organized project planning (project management) and analytical abilities
• Acquire theoretical knowledge and practical experience in basic principles of cell culture techniques. …
• Get familiar with the morpholgy, physiology and way to work with different animal and human cell lines.
• Generate awareness for the use of cells in culture (advantages and limitations).
• Understand the principles as well as application of cell biological methods to characterise the main parameters of cell behaviour like proliferation, differentiation, and viability.
• Engineering artificial tissues (3D-culture) using cell lines. Discriminate the special features of cells cultured in 3D and cells growing as a monolayer in a culture flask (2D-culture).
• Applying advanced techniques of cell biological methods to characterise the main parameters of cell behaviour like proliferation, viability, toxicity, and differentiation.
• Advanced knowledge and experience in microscopical techniques (Phase contrast, brightfield, fluorescence)
