Tematika

The course material discusses the basic principles of cell culture techniques both for cell lines and primary tissues. Fundamental techniques for stem cell purification and stem cell culture will also be detailed. The course will provide both theoretical and practical background for the use of tissue cultures in complex pharmaceutical testing and biotechnological modification of cells and tissues.
