The new discipline of systems biology aims to meet the most important challenge of the 'post-omics' era: to understand the mechanisms of the biomolecular networks. The course presents the design principles of biological systems, and highlights the recurring circuit elements that make up biolomolecular networks. It provides a simple mathematical framework which can be used to understand and even design biological circuits.\nBrief description of content\nThe course is introductory, specialist terms are largely avoided, focusing instead on several well-studied biological systems that concisely demonstrate key principles.\nThe course will present an integrated approach in which the quantitative experimental data from biochemical and cell biology research is used to create predictive models of cellular systems. Examples will be discussed to demonstrate how cell-level functions arise and why mechanistic knowledge of the biochemical systems allows us to predict behaviors leading to different cell fate decisions, and also to disease states and drug responses." . .

"Presential"@en . "The international three-year bachelor's programme in Science and Technology has innovative content and comprises selected parts of all taught in the Faculty of Science and Technology. It provides a broad overview of natural and exact sciences and technologies.\n\nIn the first year, students study subjects which give good basic knowledge and prepare them to work with modern technologies and materials. Later it is possible to choose a suitable field of specialisation based on the acquired knowledge about different areas. Students can choose a combined specialisation in genetics and biotechnology, bioengineering and robotics, or chemistry and materials science. Learning outcomes\nThe student who has completed the curriculum:\n1) possesses a sufficient level of knowledge in mathematics and natural and exact sciences to continue professional studies on Master's level and work in professions that require basic knowledge in the field and simpler working skills;\n2) understand the general principles of the main areas of natural sciences, orientates in the basic principles of the fields of natural sciences and can describe these by basic concepts;\n3) knows the main research methods used in the field and understands the nature of scientific method;\n4) knows how to collect professional information by using relevant methods and tools, and interpret the information critically and creatively;\n5) is able to plan and complete professional assignments, choosing and implementing the suitable methods and technologies;\n6) is able to analyse the issues related to the field in oral and written form and participate in the respective discussions;\n7) is able to assess the theoretical and application value of knowledge and skills obtained during the completion of the curriculum from both the personal and social perspective, taking into account the scientific, social and ethical aspects;\n8) has acquired the necessary learning skills and needs for constant professional development and lifelong learning."@en . . . . .
