8 cred.h, ECTS studies, ECTS credits: 7,5
nur Fachstudium, Sprache Deutsch, This module will be taught in English.
Time and place: 10:00 - 18:00, SR BTE
- Contents
- The Master module consists of a one-week theoretical part, two weeks of
practical class and one week of student seminars/ student talks about
immunological subjects developed by students. Genetically modified mouse
models will be used in the practical class to study the role of essential genes in
the immune system. The development of lymphocytes, the rearrangement of
antigen receptors, signal transduction and immune responses (studied by ELISA
and immune histology) will be analyzed in various mouse knockout lines. In
parallel, students will study in the literature, how genetically modified mouse
models helped to clarify basic mechanisms and to develop new concepts in
immunological research.
