Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
1. Successful completion of the courses "Biochemistry of Macromolecular Compounds", "Methods of Modern Biological Research", and "Bioinformatics".
2. Knowledge of the theoretical foundations of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and bioinformatics.
3. Practical skills in handling materials and equipment used in biochemical research.
Course content
"Genomics" covers the study of modern methods of obtaining and analyzing recombinant DNA, cloning specific genes and the use of cloned DNA, DNA sequencing, PCR, genome mapping, use of DNA markers, genomic maps in genetic analysis, as well as provides information on the physical organization of entire genomes, functional genomics, which characterizes the products of gene expression (proteomes, etc.).
