Neuroscience & Neurobiology at the IBMB

The module PM3 Molecular Neurobiology  consists of three parts: lectures, seminars and practical courses (lab project). All events will take place each year in December/January at the Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IBMB, Bonn-Poppelsdorf, Nussallee 11).

Each day will start with a lecture or a seminar at 8h c.t.  in seminar room 2 at the IBMB, specified in the timeline. After a short break of 5 min the lecture will proceed or a seminar will start. A timeline for each winter semester will be published in eCAMPUS.

In each seminar, two students will talk about papers (original article and review article) to a special topic of neurobiology. All students should learn to critically read and understand a scientific paper.

The students will be attended by lecturers in preparing their seminar talks. Please don´t hesitate to contact a lecturer! The lecturer will give you detailed instruction which topics of the paper have to be presented and discussed. Therefore it is advisable to contact them before preparing the seminar talk.

Supplements for lectures and seminars (powerpoint presentations, pdf documents) will be made available on the eCAMPUS platform after a log-in with your personal uni-bonn ID. But access is depending on correct registration for module PM3!

After the lecture/seminar and a further break of about 15 min, students will have the oppurtunity to enter the lab room and to work on their project (see detailed information for the lab project).
The final oral examinations will probably be in February. The definite timeline and the list of examiners will be published just before beginning of the module.
If you have any other question concerning the organisation of the module, please first contact   Dr. Christof Völker ( fon: 0228-73-3266 , E-Mail:  c.voelker@uni-bonn.de ).
