10 ECTS
The overall goal is to provide students with the fundamental knowledge and hands-on experience necessary to analyze proteomics or genomic results, and learn how to apply these techniques in the laboratory.
This course will focus on the theoretical and practical aspects of proteomics such as separation sciences including sample preparation; separation techniques (gel electrophoresis (1 and 2 Dimensional) and the non-gel based technique MUDPIT); and methods for protein detection and quantification. The theoretical and practical aspects of mass spectrometry (MALDI and electrospray) will be covered. Combined with the above, methods concerning applied genomics such as the use of DNA/RNA and protein arrays will be presented, as will the application of bioinformatics tools to identify genes, proteins and post-translational modifications.
