Support to students in the development of their projects.


Lab4 part II

28 abril 2020, 15:00 Miguel Nobre Parreira Cacho Teixeira

Lab4: Exploring genetic manipulation strategies to modulate alcoholic fermentation carried out by Saccharomyces cerevisae: insights gathered from in silico approaches (part II). Given the COVID pandemic, instead of the wet lab class, the experimental design, methods and results to be obtained were discussed. Real results from previous years are to be analysed by the students in their class report.
