Content, progress and pedagogy of the
module
Learning objectives
Knowledge
- Describe the terminology, concepts and theories in molecular
and cellular biology associated to the methods discussed in the
module, both under normal conditions and in disease
- Identify the key technologies and methods used in a biomedical
laboratory and recognise their advantages and limitations
- Understand the principles behind the different methods and the
type of data generated
- Identify the current challenges and perspectives in cell and
molecular-based assays
Skills
- Investigate and critically assess the methodological aspects
from scientific literature
- Devise experimental workflows that incorporate the relevant
controls, following quality control guidelines when
appropriate
- Analyse experimental data qualitatively and quantitatively and
interpret the results
Competences
- Apply the theory to design experimental protocols and identify
the appropriate sources of materials
- Select the most appropriate methods to answer a biomedical
and/or translational research question
- Integrate the obtained knowledge and skills within new areas to
design and plan advanced tasks and projects
Type of instruction
- Teaching varies between lectures, workshops, (group) exercises
and individual study
