The Biology of the Cell course focuses on deepening knowledge of general and cell biology, with an emphasis on understanding the fundamental principles of key cellular processes and their interconnections. It covers both general mechanisms and specific processes and structures characteristic of selected cell types, including eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. The course also introduces basic and advanced methods for analyzing individual cells and cell populations.

The exam consists of a written and an oral part.
The written part is mandatory, the oral part can only be taken after obtaining at least 50 points (out of 100 possible) in the written part - if less than 50 points are achieved, the exam is graded F. The written part consists of closed questions (60%) and open questions (40%). Last update: Branská Barbora (27.03.2025)

Students will develop a solid understanding of the structure and function of cellular compartments and structures in both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. They will become familiar with the mechanisms of key cellular processes, transport systems, and cellular interactions. Additionally, they will gain knowledge of cell imaging techniques and understand their underlying principles. This course provides a strong foundation for further study in related subjects and for independent work with scientific literature in the field. Last update: Branská Barbora (20.03.2025)
