Maximum of 15 % absence allowed

Mid-term exams

Oral presentations should be kept by every student on the 5th or 7th week from an optional topic, in the from of a ppt presentation. The theme of the presentation should have a biochemical connection, and should be adjusted with the subject leader.

Making up for missed classes

There is no possibility to retake the practice.

Exam topics/questions

A written exam that screens the basic methodological knowledge, and the capability of solving scientific problems.
