Topic
The aim of the course is to describe interesting and novel molecular biology technologies, including three-dimensional tissue culturing, bioprinting, new generation sequencing techniques, human genetic markers, targeted genome editing. We emphasize the importance and applicability of these methods in research, in the modeling and diagnosis of different diseases.
