We are pleased to announce registration for the course "Life Cycle of a Research Project", which will begin on April 13, 2023.
Online courses for Ukrainian students of biological specialities
Course start: 08.03.2023
The aim of the course is to teach students the functions of the nervous system at all levels from the molecular to the systemic. The course explains in detail the molecular properties and function of excitable cells, human brain development, epigenetic regulation, and synaptic plasticity, and introduces students to designing and conducting of electrophysiological experiments.
The curriculum is designed for 3rd and 4th year bachelor's students, master's and postgraduate students of biological specialties. The expected number of participants is 40.
Scholarship: 18 scholarships of 200 euros.
Registration: till 28.02.2023 (closed)
The duration of the course: 6 weeks (from 08.03.2023 to 29.04.2023)
30 hours (1 ECTS credit)
Course start: 06.03.2023
Bioinformatics is a branch of science that uses information technologies and statistical methods to analyze large arrays of biological data, such as genome sequencing or protein content analysis. It is becoming more and more necessary and used in the world, but it is not yet taught at a sufficient level in all universities in Ukraine.
The course is designed for master’s, postgraduate, and 4th year undergraduate students of biological specialties (regardless institution of higher education).
The expected number of participants is 40. If there are more applications, we will offer free participation in the lectures (without awarding a certificate).
Scholarship: 18 scholarships of 200 euros.
Registration: until 26.02.2023 (closed)
The duration of the course: 6 weeks (from 06.03.2023 to 27.04.2023)
30 hours (1 ECTS credit)
The purpose of the course is to provide knowledge about the main stages of the idea implementation, planning and execution of the experimental part of a scientific project (preparation phase, selection and setting of methods, design and planning of individual experiments, expansion of project to study the molecular mechanisms underlying the obtained biological effects). The practical part will include the preparation of a project according to one's own idea, but with invented results that confirm the idea. The basic skills and abilities necessary for successful research include the use of laboratory equipment, experimental design, preparation of the solutions, selection of the conditions for determination of enzyme activities, filling the lab notebook as well as preparation of scientific reports and a manuscript. All these issues will be addressed during the course. Practical classes will include video demonstrations of the laboratory work and experiments.
The course is designed for bachelor's students, who are willing to prepare for research work
The expected number of participants is 30.
Scholarship: 14 scholarships of 200 euros. For students strongly affected by the war. Funding conditions include successful completion of the course.
Registration: till 6.04.2023 via the link
