Abstract
After this course, students should be able to recognize basic cellular structures, but also to design their appropriate detection and possible analysis.
Learning outcomes
The practical course of Cell Architecture - Practicals consists of five thematic blocks of practical tasks, taking up the lecture of Cell Architecture. The topics of the practical tasks involve issues such as approaches to imaging the cell and its organelles, cell nucleus and cell division, membrane organelles, cytoskeleton and cell surface and protection of the cell from the environment. After this course, students should be able to recognize basic cellular structures, but also to design their appropriate detection and possible analysis.
Key topics
1. Basic approaches for imaging the cell and its organelles 2. Cell nucleus and cell division 3. Membrane cell organelles, their structure and function 4. Cytoskeleton 5. Cell surface and protection of the cell from the environment
