Kompetenzziele | The aim of the module "Ecophysiology of prokaryotes" is to impart in-depth knowledge on the metabolism and physiology of microorganisms and train students in practical skills to measure physiological parameters. After completion of the module, students can - contribute to current scientific projects (under guidance) - know modern analytical techniques - know and understand recent scientific literature - can write scientific reports, present their results and discuss them |
Modulinhalte | “Ecophysiology of prokaryotes”: Projects derived from current scientific programs are carried out, typically in groups of two students guided by a senior scientist or PhD student. Typical project deal with: - Anaerobic processes Molecular analysis of microbial communities - Sediment microbiology - Physiological experiments and activity measurements - Impact of viruses - Microscopic analysis of chemotaxis In the accompanying seminar, recent scientific studies in international journals are presented by the students. The results are summarized and discussed in a protocol fulfilling scientific level requirements. |
