Students starting before the winter semester 26/27: Registration is not required for the lectures. There is no exam to sit. However, the content of the lectures may form part of the oral exam.

Students starting in the winter semester 26/27 or later: Portfolio (collection of exercises and reflective tasks completed alongside the lectures). Please ask the module coordinator about the requirements. Once it has been finalised, the portfolio must be registered in FlexNow.

The portfolio is not graded.

seminar presentation, regular participation

You must register for the seminars. Information on how to register see in SPUR.

Once you have attended a seminar, it must be registered in FlexNow.

The seminar is not graded.

Examiners: 

Functional and Topographic Anatomy

• Prof. Dr. Ernst Tamm
• Prof. Dr. Rudolf Fuchshofer

• Registration: lehrstuhl.tamm​(at)​ur.de

   

Neuroanatomy

• Prof. Dr. Silke Härteis
• Registration: silke.haerteis@ur.de

The student can choose one of the examiner.

Please get in contact with the examiner of your choice to arrange a date of the oral examination, than register the examination in FlexNow.

The oral examination is graded (= module grade).

• Protein biochemstry: Western blot, Immunprecipitation, Protein isolation and purification

• DNA/RNA: Real-time PCR, cloning 

• Cell culture: Proliferation assay, migration assay, establishing of primary cell lines, transfection

• Presentation and discussion of own experimentally gained data

Laboratory course (6 weeks): Human Anatomy - Cell Biology; e.g. Structural and Functional Analysis of Animal Models of Human Diseases (54703; link SPUR (externer Link, öffnet neues Fenster))

Contact the module coordinator to find a supervisor for the laboratory course. 

The date of the laboratory course will then be arranged with the supervisor.

• Transgenic animal models: Glaucoma, retinal degeneration

• Inducible stress models: Retinopathy of prematurity, retinal degeneration model

• Analysis of animal models: Histology, expression and synthesis studies (real-time RT-PCR, western blot, immunhistological stainings); electron microscopy

• Presentation and discussion of own experimentally gained data
