Kursusintroduktion
To give students a thorough introduction to signalling events which underlie eukaryote cell function and dysfunction. Mechanism by which extracellular signals are transmitted to cells and exert their effects will be discussed. Participants will learn about the roles of signalling molecules such as hormones, receptors, kinases, and transcription factors. Participants will also gain experience in reading original research articles and in oral and written presentation of scientifc results.

Eksamen- og censurform:
Students will give short presentations of original research articles. They must attend at least 80% of the scheduled hours and participate actively in discussions following the presentations.
They will also prepare a short synopsis about a signalling topic. Instructors will advice in the preparation of this synopsis, which will also be the basis for the course grade according to the Danish 13-point scale with an external examiner.
