Anotace
This subject focuses on educating students in biomedical research and biotechnologies. It teaches the basis of scientific work, introduction to methodology in biomedicine up to the development of novel diagnostics and therapeutics.
Lectures and seminars will contain the insight into modern tools such as transgenic biology or global technologies such as OMICs.
