Requirements

Final examination. In 2010, the course will be taken as a self-study course, meaning that special material with instructions are given to the students. The self-study material includes lecture notes and specific book chapters. The self-study material is based on specific chapters in the book "Essential Cell Biology" by Alberts et al. As the course is based on self-study material there will not be any lectures this year. Material will be available during the first week of the 3rd period. The material will be placed in the TC corridor, 4th floor, of the Department of Signal Processing, close to the door of Room TC-403. The material can be copied and should be returned immediately after copying to the original location.
