Research Seminar: Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms of Neuronal Differentiation (Stud IP 6.01.56101j)
The seminar provides in-depth knowledge of neuronal differentiation processes during development and in regeneration processes in the adult central nervous system. The seminar comprises a lecture and a literature seminar. In addition, students writing a dissertation in the Department of Anatomy are given the opportunity to present and discuss their experimental results.
The lecture component covers the fundamentals of neurobiology and neuronal development. Furthermore, methods of experimental molecular and cellular neurobiology are taught.
In the literature seminar, current scientific literature is discussed. New publications are presented in short talks by both lecturers and students.
The course is offered alongside the LFC or a (medical) doctoral thesis, as well as Bachelor’s and Master’s theses, to provide in-depth insights into neurobiology and neural development. The research seminar may also be credited as a companion seminar to the practical module and the Bachelor’s final module, for example within the Biology degree programme.
The research seminar is generally aimed at all students who have a particular interest in neurobiology, especially in relation to developmental processes. No specific prior knowledge is required to take part.
