| Comments | To get the credit points for the lecture "13693-01 Signaling in the nervous system" you need to do the following: Write a report about one paper that will be referenced in the course (the papers you can choose from will be uploaded in April 2018 on ADAM at https://adam.unibas.ch/goto_adam_crs_548652.html). The report should be 2 A4 pages long, giving a brief introduction to the topic (why is the topic important?), what are the main results and conclusions, raise any criticism of the paper and suggest new experiments. The report should be handed in by May 29 2018. There will be no other tests on that day, nor any lectures (you hence do not have to show up in room 103). |
