1 CELL BIOLOGY, BIOINFORMATICS AND SYSTEMS BIOLOGY BIO160 (GU); UMF012 (Chalmers) schedule 2010 Head of course: Markus Tamas (MT) Cell and Molecular Biology-Microbiology Medicinaregatan 9C Lundberg Laboratory (Room 1415) Göteborg Phone: Responsible for the bioinformatics part Tore Samuelsson Department of Medical Biochemistry and Cell Biology Medicinareg. 9A Göteborg, Sweden Phone: Lecturers and assistants: Lasse Ottosson (LO) Loubna Bendrioua (LB) Madelene Palmgren (MP) Roja Babazadeh (RB) Lectures, group discussions and lab practicals will be at the Medical Hill (Medicinareberget) in Göteborg. For those of you who might have difficulties in finding the lecture room 2303 (on Medicinaregatan 9C located on 3 rd floor above Lundberg Café) we will see each other at the entrance to Lundberg Laboratory at on September 1 st. Literature: Essential cell biology - An introduction to the molecular biology of the cell (2 nd Edition) Alberts et al., 2004; Garland Science Marks on the course: The final mark on the course will be the result of 1) the presentation of the function of a gene, 2) written labreports, 3) written summaries of research seminars and 4) the exam. The balance between the tasks in the final mark will be 1) 12%, 2) 19%, 3) 19%, and 4) 50%. Lab practicals and the preparation and discussions regarding the lab practicals are compulsory. Also the research seminars and the project presentations are compulsory. The group discussions are optional and it is up to you to attend and get help from the assistants, however, it is highly recommended that you take part in these events. 1
