Learning outcomes

After completing the course students can describe the basic concepts of cell biology. They can explain the mechanisms of cell proliferation, differentiation, and communication. Students can describe the electrophysiologic phenomena of neural and muscular cells. They are able to practice basic recordings from the cells and manipulate the cells. Students can also describe the the basics of modelling of cellular phenomena.
