Topic

Prof Robert Sapolsky at Stanford University uploaded a free course on biology of the human behaviour, which has many aspects connected to molecular genetics and behavioral genetics - new fields of research affecting our understanding of sex, aggression, language, diseases like schizophrenia and so on. In this course we will hear and see each one of his 2010 lectures in ca. 45-60 min. pieces and discuss the information delivered. The lectures can be stopped at any point so that emerging questions are negotiated in detail.

Curriculum:

1. General introduction

2. Behavioral evolution I. Key facts 3. Behavioral evolution II. Game theory 4. Behavioral evolution III. Misconceptions

5. Behavioral evolution IV. Intersexual conflicts and diseases

6. Molecular genetics I. Chimps to humans 97%, sibling to sibling 50%? 7. Molecular genetics II. Morphology vs function

8. Molecular genetics III. Diseases 9. Molecular genetics IV. Beyond disease

10. Behavioral genetics I. I’ve found the gene for that! 11. Behavioral genetics II. Prenatal effects

12. Behavioral genetics III. Metro dogs

13. Behavioral genetics IV. Gene-environment interaction 14. Summary, questions, discussion, exam

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

Maximum of 15 % absence allowed

Making up for missed classes

One additional lecture can be done at the end of the semester.

Exam topics/questions

No detailed questions are asked about which gene does what, rather a synthesis and deep understanding of the connections between genetics, behaviour, disease etc. should be reached and given back at the exam.

Topic

Some students are successful at the university. Some are not – however they were also successful at their earlier schools. What makes this difference? There can be many such reasons. One of the most important is – for sure – that most students are continuing their earlier learning practice – however the learning circumstances and the requirements were changed a lot. This leads to failure that causes increasing stress. This result is even more failure. The key point is to break this circle: Change your learning habit, develop your learning skills specific to university learning. The aim of this course is to help students in that in order to maximally benefit from their university experience.

The result of this course will improve your performance in all other subjects at the university. The new skills and habits will benefit in your private life as well and support your career lifelong.

Topic

The objective of this course is to imitate the oral exam situation of Molecular Cell Biology (MCB) in a small-group-discussion setting. The list of exam question of MCB will be followed during the course: each time 4-5 students of the 20-25 member class will be examined with one question for each examinee. The examiner is one of the instructors/ professors of the Department who conducts and grades the examination the same way as on „real” exams. All the examiners of the Department will be involved, in a rotation system. The aim of the course is to make students familiar with the stressful atmosphere of oral exams. Only students ready to be exposed to the exam situation week-after-week are invited to take this course.

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

The grade is determined by continuous performance evaluation. Maximum absences: 4.

Making up for missed classes

No possibility to make up for missed classes.
