Faglig innhold
In this course you will study the molecular biology of microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses which cause infection in humans. We will focus on selected infectious diseases causing both sporadic infections and outbreaks, and the microorganisms, which cause these diseases. You will study the clinical presentation of the disease and its epidemiology, the genome structure of the microorganisms, the mechanisms of horizontal gene transfer, virulence factors and how the microorganisms cause disease, and antimicrobial resistance. Further, you will learn about molecular methods for diagnosis and genotyping of microorganisms. You will also get experience with basic bioinformatics methods for analysis and comparison of nucleic acid sequences, both nucleotide and genome sequences.
Læringsutbytte
After completion of the course the student should be able to demonstrate a strong general knowledge in molecular medical microbiology:
have good knowledge about the molecular biology of microorgansims
have good knowledge about selected infectious diseases and their epidemiology
have good knowledge about molecular methods for identification and quantification of microorganisms
have good knowledge about molecular methods for genotyping of microorganism agents, and their use in the investigation of infectious diseases
have basic knowledge about bioinformatics methods and be able to perform for analyses and comparison microbial nucleotide and genome sequences.
Læringsformer og aktiviteter
Lectures, a bioinformatics exercise and a compulsory written assignment. Written exam and the compulsory written assignment count 50% of the final grade each.
