Kompetenzziele

Goals of the Module:
to expand the knowledge about classical cytogenetics and molecular genetics as well as modern cyto- and molecular genetics technics applied in clinical diagnostics and research.

Competencies:

++ deepened knowledge of biological working methods and clinical diagnostics (classical cyto- and molecular genetics laboratory methods)
++ data analysis skills
  + interdisciplinary thinking
++ critical and analytical thinking
  + independent searching and knowledge of scientific literature
++ ability to perform independent biological research
  + data presentation and discussion (written and spoken)
  + team work
  + project and time management

Modulinhalte

The module focuses on genome- and gene mutations, cyto- and molecular genetics, human syndromes and diseases caused by different chromosomal aberrations.

Lecture:
essentials of classical cytogenetics and molecular genetics, classification of mutations, genetics syndromes/diseases, introduction to the genetic diagnostic laboratory techniques

Exercises:
chromosomal stainings, microscopy, karyotyping, identification of chromosomal aberrations, identification of gene mutations
