Description

Content:

Students attend the weekly seminar series in CDB and/or in the LMCB and in Term 1 a series of 2-hour workshops on cutting-edge techniques in cell biology. In addition, students attend around five 2-hour cell biology tutorials. These can be scheduled during the first or second term depending on student workload. Assessment of student performance is entirely via coursework, a 'News and Views’ type report on the content of one of the seminars and a review of an experimental technique and its contribution/potential contribution to cell biology.
