Course content
Course "Laboratory Workshop on Genetics. Part 2", which is part of the educational-professional program "Biology" at the educational level "Bachelor", aims to enable students on the basis of acquired theoretical knowledge to master the basic methods of genetic research for course and final qualifying works, analyze and interpret experimental data , to carry out statistical processing of the received results, to work with scientific literature and electronic databases. During the laboratory workshop students gain basic skills of laboratory experiments, get acquainted with modern molecular and cytogenetic methods, methods of medical genetics and immunogenetics, modern approaches to the study of eukaryotic chromosomes, classical and modern methods of plant breeding and plant genetics.
