Objectives of the Course This course introduces students to embedded system design and programming concepts
Course Content The course will cover gene primer designing, databases for finding gene and gene sequence, restriction enzymes, gene cloning, transfection/transformation, DNA delivery, Polymerase Chain Reactions, cell culture, and gene editing technologies (CRISPR, TALEN, etc.). Chip-seq, single-cell RNA-sequence. This knowledge enables students to
understand the basic principles of techniques used in molecular biology and genetics.
Course Methods and Techniques The course is taught with a student-centered approach. The course includes in-class activities, group work, assignments, mini projects and laboratory. Various interactive methods such as discussions, peer interaction and hands-on activities will be used.
