Forschungspraktikum Organoid-Technologien - MSc.

What it is about

You work with 3D organoid cultures as an advanced in-vitro model for investigating organ development, disease mechanisms and regeneration. In the end you will be able to produce and culture organoids from suitable cells, analyze them with common molecular biology methods and scientifically evaluate and present the results.

What you will be able to do

• Plan and conduct a research project/experiment independently
• Understand the importance of organoids as an experimental model
• Set up and maintain organoid cultures
• Apply fundamental molecular biological analytical methods
• Isolate cells for organoid experiments
• Work independently in a stem cell laboratory
• Interpret results and present them in writing and orally

What the module consists of

• Research internship (lab)full-time integration into the research group for six weeks; execution of an independent project
• PresentationTalk about the project and results in the staff seminar

Teaching method

• Team-integrated research internshipYou work directly in the group 'Integrated Organoid Systems', develop and carry out a project, learn daily research procedures and practice scientific method and time management
• Supervision and literature workPersonal supervision by group members as well as independent literature research and use of lab protocols support the project work
