| Content | Developmental biology • Stem cells • Cell differentiation • Organ and cell development • Cell signalling • Organization of the nucleus Neuroscience • Connectivity in the brain and spinal cord • Dynamics and plasticity of synapses in the brain • Sensory and motor processing • Imaging structure and function in the nervous system • Biology of the Neuromuscular system |
| Learning objectives | The aim of the Developmental Biology and Neuroscience Course is to learn about current topics in these fields, and to gain first-hand experience in state-of-the-art experimental methods. The course consists of introductory lectures covering different research topics, practical experimental sessions and data analysis. In addition, students will be advised how to write a research report and how to critically assess scientific literature. |
