Content
The course consists of several parts addressing aspects of cell biology, genetics and genomics, inklusive olika typer av analyser a genetisk data.
Examination
The examination consists of oral and written assignments.
If there are special grounds, or a need for adaptation for a student with a disability, the examiner may decide to deviate from the syllabus's regulations on the examination form, the number of examination opportunities, the possibility of supplementation or exemptions from the compulsory sections of the course etc. Content and learning outcomes as well as the level of expected skills, knowledge and abilities may not be changed, removed or reduced.
