Description:

The student will be introduced to a variety of current experimental techniques in molecular biology. The aim is to provide an understanding of the techniques and how to interpret results. The focus of this course will be manipulation and analysis of gene expression in prokaryotic systems, though eukaryotic tools will be briefly described. Students will become familiar with common wet-lab methods used in various fields in biology, and gain an understanding of the objectives, applicability and limitations underlying each of these methods.
