About the course

Aim

Individual and professional skills: The student is expected to show an ability to

plan, implement and present an independent work within the framework of a group project
formulate research questions and limit a project so that it can be carried out within the given time-frame
answer scientific questions using systems biology methods
demonstrate familiarity with software relevant to the project
search and evaluate scientific literature
use principles for reproducibility of research results in an appropriate manner

Group work and communication: The student is expected to show an ability to

contribute to a well-functioning group process.
express himself/herself professionally both in writing and in oral presentations, within all the different examination forms: group-presentation for the customer, oral presentation (3 in total), poster presentation, and a written thesis
to critically examine and discuss, both in writing and at a presentation event, another thesis.

CDIO professionalism: The student is expected to be able to

put the work in relation to its scientific, societal, and ethical consequences

Content

The student is expected to systematically integrate their knowledge acquired in biology, biochemistry, mathematics, programming, and general problem-solving. This is achieved by addressing a systems biology research question, where the student uses mathematical modeling to answer a scientific question based on real biological data that has not been previously addressed.

Other types of projects within the field of biotechnology may also be proposed, provided that the student finds a suitable supervisor on their own.

Examiner: Gunnar Cedersund
