Kurzbeschreibung	This Course introduces principle concepts, techniques, and experimental strategies used in modern Cell Biology. Major topics include: Neuron-glia interactions in health and disease; stem cell biology; growth factor action in development and disease; cell metabolism, in particular sensing and signaling mechanisms, cell organelles, and lipid metabolism.
Lernziel	1) To prepare the students for successful and efficient lab work by learning how to ask the right questions and to use the appropriate techniques in a research project. 2) To provide the students with an overview of the current concepts in progenitor and stem cell biology. 3) To convey basic mechanisms of growth factor action and the technologies used to study growth factor signaling and function in development, tissue homeostasis and disease. 4) To provide a comprehensive understanding of metabolic sensing mechanisms occurring in different cell types and organelles in response to glucose, hormones, oxygen, nutrients as well as lipids, and to discuss downstream signaling pathways and cellular responses 5) To provide models explaining how disturbances in complex metabolic control networks and bioenergetics can lead to disease and to highlight latest experimental approaches to uncover the intricacies of metabolic control at the cellular and organismal level. 6) Providing the background and context that foster cross-disciplinary scientific thinking.
551-0358-00L	Cell Biology I (Molecular Cell Biology)	6 KP	7G	S. Werner, W. Kovacs, W. Krek, M. Schäfer, U. Suter, F. Thoma
Kurzbeschreibung	This course aims at the understanding of general cellular processes, ranging from molecular genetics to intercellular communication to the control of cellular metabolism in cells and animal models. Students will become familiar with state-of-the-art technologies in molecular and cellular biology. The practical work will be extended by presentation and discussion of relevant scientific literature.
Lernziel	To learn modern technologies in Molecular and Cellular Biology and to use these technologies to study questions related to mechanisms underlying development, tissue repair and human disease To learn the use and critical analysis of relevant scientific literature
551-0388-00L	Cell Biology II (Molecular Medicine)	6 KP	7G	W. Krek, U. Auf dem Keller, S. Jessberger, W. Kovacs, M. Schäfer, U. Suter, S. Werner
Kurzbeschreibung	This course will consider genetic, cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying some of the most common human diseases. Areas of focus include developmental mechanisms of disease, the molecular biology and physiology of tissue repair and the metabolic basis of cancer. The course combines practical work with lectures, discussions, project preparations and presentations.
Lernziel	Insights into and overview of modern approaches to study the molecular basis of disease in in vitro systems and mouse models
551-0512-00L	Current Topics in Molecular and Cellular Neurobiology	2 KP	1S	U. Suter, A. Niemann
Kurzbeschreibung	The course is a literature seminar or "journal club". Each Friday a student, or a member of the Suter Lab in the Institute of Cell Biology, will present a paper from the recent literature.
Lernziel	The course introduces you to some of the most recent developments in the fields of developmental and neurobiology. It should also help to develop your skills in critically reading the scientific literature. You should be able to grasp what the authors wanted to learn, why they chose the experimental approach they used, strengths and weaknesses of the experiments and the data presented, and how the work fits into the wider literature in the field. You will present one paper yourself, which will give you practice in public speaking.
Inhalt	You will present one paper yourself. Give an introduction to the field of the paper, then show and comment on the main results (all the papers we present are available online, so you can show original figures with a beamer). Finish with a summary of the main points and a discussion of their significance. You are expected to take part in the discussion and to ask questions. To prepare for this you should read all the papers beforehand (they will be announced a week in advance of the presentation).
Skript	Presentations will be made available after the seminars.
Literatur	We cover a range of themes related to development and neurobiology. Before starting your preparations, check with Axel Niemann, who can also help with finding an appropriate paper.
Voraussetzungen / Besonderes	You must attend at least 80% of the journal clubs, and give a presentation of your own. At the end of the semester there will be a 30 minute oral exam on the material presented during the semester. The grade will be based on the exam (50%), your presentation (30%), and a contribution based on your active participation in discussion of other presentations (20%).
