Annotation -
The seminar on biochemistry of prokaryotes and eukaryotes is an interdisciplinary subject that focuses on a deeper understanding of the biochemical processes in organisms from the kingdoms of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. During the seminar, students will become familiar with the more complex biochemical processes occurring in cells of both types of organisms. Emphasis will be placed on comparative studies between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, aiming to comprehend the differences and similarities between these two types of organisms. The seminar consists of lectures, discussions, and student presentations. Students will be encouraged to actively engage and think critically when exploring various biochemical concepts. They will also have the opportunity to familiarize themselves with current research papers and advancements in the field of prokaryotic and eukaryotic biochemistry. The seminar on biochemistry of prokaryotes and eukaryotes is suitable for students of biochemistry, molecular biology, microbiology, and related fields. The course contributes to the development of scientific thinking and prepares students for further study and research in the fields of biochemistry and microbiology.
