BMS385 Practical cell biology
Aim: This module aims to provide third level students with experience of research laboratory work in cell biology.
Objectives: By the end of this module students should be able to: *Describe the principles of experimental design and the stages of development of a practical protocol* interpret and present data in a format used in a research environment

BMS385 Practical cell biology
Aim: This module aims to provide third level students with experience of research laboratory work in cell biology.
Particular emphasis will be placed on the development, execution and interpretation of experimental protocols as is standard practice in a research laboratory.
Objectives: By the end of this module students should be able to: *Describe the principles of experimental design and the stages of development of a practical protocol* interpret and present data in a format used in a research environment

….or want to try something more elaborate?

…yes we did that in Level 1 but it was set up for us so I didn’t really pay attention…

So what do we do?
![Page 12: Enabling students to find experiments fun and just a little bit addictive..... Liz Smythe](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110211/568132a6550346895d994707/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
So what do we do?
Introduction •The principle of experiment design
hypothesis, experimental set-up,data interpretation, re-evaluation of hypothesis
![Page 13: Enabling students to find experiments fun and just a little bit addictive..... Liz Smythe](https://reader038.fdocuments.in/reader038/viewer/2022110211/568132a6550346895d994707/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
So what do we do?
Introduction •The principle of experiment design
hypothesis, experimental set-up,data interpretation, re-evaluation of hypothesis
•The principle behind the specific experiments

So what do we do?
Introduction •The principle of experiment design
hypothesis, experimental set-up,data interpretation, re-evaluation of hypothesis
•The principle behind the specific experiments•What we expect from them
three related experimentsoutline of protocol for the first

(but to expect further questions in response)

Feedback
I thought all my University courses would be like this one
Module taught me what science is really like…
I enjoyed the module because I was treated like an equal
