Course content
|
Doctoral students will be introduced to nucleic acid isolation techniques, separation methods, hybridization techniques and DNA cloning methods. They will gain detailed knowledge in the field of techniques based on the polymerase chain reaction, detection of microsatellite polymorphisms and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), population variability and diversity studies techniques. Methods of structural genomics (genome mapping, sequencing), special methods of functional genomics (eg reverse transcription PCR), nucleic acid quantification (real-time PCR) and new techniques of large-scale screening (microarray).
