Additional information

The course SGN-6056 will not be lectured anymore. Instead the course will be replaced with the course SGN-6057 (Introduction to Cell and Molecular Biology). The content will, however, be almost identical. SGN-6057 (or equivalent knowledge) is a prerequisite for SGN-6106 (Computational Systems Biology 1).

More precise information per implementation

  Description Methods of instruction Implementation
Implementation 1 There will be one lecture in the beginning of the course. It is important to participate the first lecture in order to know the requirements for passing the course. The next four lectures will be given in the form of tutorial sessions. In other words, everyone is expected to read the given material before each tutorial session. If there is need for further clarifications we provide tutors who will help in studying the given material. Please see the course implementation for tutorial session.       Contact teaching: 0 %
