授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | The objective of this course is to learn how to perform experiments correctly and in a well-organized manner, including how to properly take notes of the procedures, findings, and questions that may arise from the experiments. The other objective is to clearly and concisely convey to others the findings of the experiments that support your conclusion. This course will introduce you to (a) basics of experimental work, (b) inorganic chemical analysis, (c) organic chemistry, (d) biochemistry, (e) molecular biology, (f) cell biology, and (g) bioinformatics.
Through these seven modules, you will experience extraction and quantification of inorganic components from organic and inorganic samples; quantitative and qualitative analysis, and synthesis of organic compounds; separation, quantitative and qualitative analysis of proteins and enzymes; culture and classification of microorganisms, genetic engineering, fermentation, gene amplification, and experiments related to molecular genetics; observation of the intracellular structure, cell cycle, differentiation, and dedifferentiation; information retrieval, gene search, display of protein three-dimensional structure, and programming using your computer. |

成績評価の方法と基準
Course Evaluation Method and Criteria | | Students can withdraw from the course by submitting a withdrawal request.
Grading is based on attendance and experiment reports. Only the students who attend the classes regularly and submit their assignments will be graded. If you are missing classes or you fail to submit all requested assignments, you cannot be graded and get credits for this course. Instead of a grade, your status will be classified as "absent". |
