Course Objectives		The aim of this course is to provide in-depth knowledge of fundamentals of the bionanotechnology, the properties of model organisms and their applications in the field of bionanotechnology.
Course Description		This course will focus on bionanotechnology, where the biological world takes place as an inspiration or ultimate goal. In the course, we will investigate the characteristics of model organisms (selected species widely studied to understand the biological process) such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Mus musculus etc. used in bionanotechnological research. A project assignment will enable students to conduct scientific research and make a presentation on the specific use of model organisms.
Course Outcomes		M.Sc./Ph.D. students who successfully pass this course gain knowledge, skill, and competency in the following subjects; • Acquire a good understanding of the basic principles and applications of Bionanotechnology. • Understand the properties of biological building blocks. • Understand and explain the use and value of model organisms in the analysis and elucidation of biological principles. • Describe how different model organisms can be used to address a particular question. Understand the applications and limitations of different model organisms • Perform a literature search and presentation of selected topics
