Inhalt:
Seminar talks cover topics concerning the molecular mechanisms controlling developmental processes with an emphasis on tissue and organ development involving progenitor and stem cells in vertebrate and invertebrate model organisms. In the laboratory course, projects in small groups are pursued related to ongoing research in the participating labs, which address gene functions, transcriptional, and signalling processes during embryonic development and organogenesis (gonad, early embryo, muscle, and heart development). Among the techniques applied are molecular methods (PCR, gene cloning, sequencing), genetic methods (mutants, transgenic insects, RNAi, morpholino antisense nucleotides, gene over-expression), detection methods (in situ hybridization, histochemistry, transgenic markers), and microscopy (fluorescence microscopy, structured illumination, confocal microscopy) as well as other molecular and bioinformatic methods.
Lernziele und Kompetenzen:
Students will acquire the following skills: They will
be able to present and critically discuss results of current developmental research articles
become familiar with current concepts of developmental biology, including the molecular basis of developmental regulation
obtain an understanding of genetic techniques and methods used for analysis of developmental problems
be able to independently develop working hypotheses, and to plan and conduct experiments to test these
learn to discuss their results and defend their conclusions in proper context
Literatur:
Review articles will be provided electronically
