Desription

Objectives of the course (preferably expressed in terms of learning outcomes and competences):  Special Topics in Biotechnology and Planta Imaging aims at delving into cellular mechanisms and their methodological exploration. Hence, we will discuss or suggest biological applications based on molecular biology and physiology. We will also emphasize in more classical biotechnological applications. The course aims also to develop the critical thinking of students and introduce them to a series of experimental setups for being able to experimentally approach in a more coherent and mutlidisciplinary way topics relevant to biotechnology.
Upon succesful completion of the course, students will be able to :
Acquire state of the art knowledge in advanced technologies for identification of cellular mechanisms that can be used to produce new products
Acquire knowledge for the advances that plant cells offer for the developemnt of added value products
Acquire knowledge that may allow them to develop or even establish settings in industry
