Metabolische Analyse und Entwicklung

Lab Course Provide the student with an understanding of metabolic pathways and networks, the roles of enzymes and their regulation. The student will learn to estimate the power of tools, e.g. growth of designed mutants disrupted in single genes, and will get experience with different analytical methods. Communication between the students is stimulated by dividing them into four TEAMs, each responsible for a different system. In the first and second week each TEAM can focus on its system understanding methods, theoretical background and the objective. In the following weeks each TEAM is supervising one of the other three TEAMs in the performance of the experiment. That means from the third week on each TEAM is involved in parallel in two experiments, one as supervisor and a second as trainee. Seminar Each students has to present the scientific question, the experimental approach, results and conclusions of a original paper which was publised by the host father recently. Communication skills are trained by presention and discussion. The students introduce each other. They learn to ask questions and one of them has to summarize the main points of the discussion.

Each TEAM (2 student) will take part in an oral presentation and discussion (15 min); furthermore a short manuscript about results of the experiments has to be submitted; presentation and quality of the manuscript will be scored each 50 % for the final mark.
