Last update: PharmDr. Jana Vobořilová, Ph.D. (01.10.2008)

The aim of the course in winter semester is to provide students with basis of cell and molecular biology. The topics are chosen in a way to provide students knowledge in those parts of cell and molecular biology that are associated with structure and function of procaryotic as well as eucaryotic cells. Other topics are focused on structure and function of DNA, RNA, and proteins in the cell. Students will gain theoretical and practical knowledge. Concerning practical knowledge, they will become familiar with some methods such as PCR.

Requirements to the exam -
Last update: Bc. Lucie Řičánková (11.03.2010)

Requirements for obtaining credit as to winter and summer semester concerning the course "Cell and Molecular Biology"

(Module IB)

Requirements for the credit:

1. Successful passing complete practices including 100% presence at practices (apologized absence can be substituted by oral exam)

2. Successful passing written test:

  • 40 questions (winter sem.) / 30 questions ( summer sem.) with four answers, none to four answers are correct
  • 35/25 questions concerning lectures, 5 questions concerning practices
  • 1 point for 1 correctly answered whole question
  • maximum number of points: 40/30
  • minimum number of points for successful test:

1st test: 24 (winter s.) / 18 (summer s.)

2nd test: 25 (winter s.) / 19 (summer s.)

3rd test: 26 (winter s.) / 20 (summer s.)

After the 3rd unsuccessful test, it is possible to get the credit only on the basis of oral exam. Unsuccessful oral exam can be repeated after 1 week as the earliest. Student, without passing all 3 unsuccessful tests due to his/her own miscalculation, will not be allowed to pass oral exam.

For the term of test, you must LEGIBLY (!) sign up in the list which you will find on the notice board of the Department of Cell and Molecular Biology on the sixth floor. Every student is allowed to sing up only for one term in advance! The day before an actual term, the list for that term will be just placed in the room of department´s secretary. There it will be still possible to sign up for that term, in the case of free places, or to cancel registration until 15.00 the latest. In the case of the absence of registered student at the test without providing serious reasons, it will be taken as unsuccessful test. You will not be allowed to write the test without your ID!

Announced terms will be set up as final. Further terms will not be scheduled. An exception will be only made for those students which can prove that they have serious reasons for their absence at individual mentioned terms. You should take into account that the capacity of every term depends on the capacity of reserved rooms.
