Rules

  • Safety: once a year all lab members needs to go through the safety instruction. This is found on Ilias (Pfad: Fakultät für Chemie und Biowissenschaften - laufendes Semester - BIO_ZELLBOT_Sicherheit). Print your result and bring it as reference till the start of the lectures.
  • Handover: at the end you need to hadn over lab space, samples, data to your mentor and the keys for your cupboard to Herr Krüger. Details are here.
  • Student cupboards: can be obtained in the secretary (Herr Krüger), need to be returned at the end of the module.

 

Objectives of the Course

 

  • Introduction into methods and concepts of modern plant evolution biology.

  • Competence in interpretation of current methodology

  • Deep understanding of these methods

  • Practicing independent scientific thinking, critical approach with sources.

  • Cellular aspects of plant development

 

 

 

Ablauf des Moduls (Organisation of the Module)

 

The module is offered in two versions in the block after the winter term.

  • For Master students as Research Module for the subjects Botany, Developmental Biology, and Cell Biology, also as part of the Vertiefermodul Chemical Biology. Start Tue 22.04.2025, 10:00 (SR 506-507, Bld. 30.43).
  • For Bachelor students as version of BA 07/ANG 07 Biologische Forschung, also for Chemical Biology. Next time February 2026.

The lecture Plant Cell Biology - Methods and Concepts is the same in both version (Dates and topics). The Group Exercises are also the same, but some other parts are partially different based on the different levels of experience. (Details can be found over the links given above). Final presentations and written exam are the same.

Date final presentations ue 20.05.2025, 10:00-12:00, 10:00-12:00 (around 20-25 min per team) - afterwards handover lab space, data, and samples
