Cell cycle and its regulation (microscopes and microscopic observation, cell cycle and its checkpoints, mitosis, meiosis, cyclins, cyclin-dependent kinases, cultivation of cells, types of cell cultures)

Cytogenetics 1 and 2 (structure of chromosome, telomeres, types of chromosomes, human karyotype, sex determination, X chromosome inactivation, cytogenetic examination, classification of chromosome abnormalities, polyploidies, aneuploidies, mosaicism, structure chromosome abnormalities, assisted reproduction techniques and their ethical issues, preimplantation genetic diagnostics, molecular cytogenetics, FISH technique)

Basic laws and modes of heredity, clinical genetics (genetic counseling: indication, methods, pedigrees, Mendel laws, monogenic inheritance, genomic imprinting, dihybridism and gene interactions, mitochondrial inheritance, interaction of non-allelic genes, multifactorial inheritance, screening in pregnancy, prenatal diagnosis)

Gene linkage (gene mapping, crossing over, recombination, gene linkage phase, linkage analysis and its use in medicine)

Population genetics 1 (definitions, genetic variability, the Hardy-Weinberg law and its use)

Population genetics 2 (evolutionary factors and their impact, non-random mating, mutation, selection, gene drift, gene flow, migration)

Biology of prokaryotes and viruses (archebacteria, eubacteria, prokaryotic cell, reproduction of bacteria, basic structure of viruses, viral nucleic acids, life strategy of viruses, virusoids, prions)

Evolution 1 and 2 (origin of life, prebiotic evolution, evolution theories, evolution of life on Earth, human ancestors, Neanderthals, Denisovans, origin of Homo sapiens, polycentric and multicentre models, the concept of mitochondrial Eve)

Ecology and ecogenetics 1 and 2 (ecogenetics – definition, interspecific relationships, symbiosis, holobionts, human microbiome, parasitism, classification of parasites, life strategy and reproduction of parasites, the effect of parasites on the human body, mutagenic and carcinogenic substances in human environment, genotoxicity tests)
