Next we have a look at the basic building blocks of proteins, domains, and learn how these combine to form new functional entities. Then we look at how proteins react as enzymes and with each other, how they are modified, and which factors determine how fast they react. In the fourth section, we look at how major signalling pathways function on the protein-structural level, before we in the fifth section look at drug discovery. We learn about basics in drug discovery and will apply our knowledge from all the sections in group exercises to formulate steps necessary in drug discovery.<br>These theoretical sections are supported by method focused lectures, where we learn about common tools in protein biochemistry. This includes, the structure and application of antibodies e.g. in Western blotting, bio\/physical techniques to study protein-protein interactions in vitro and in cells, basics of protein structure determination and common assays in drug discovery.<br>Additional lectures and exercises will introduce you to the use of protein databases and computational protein structure analysis.<br>In an accompanying seminar you will elaborate a presentation on a protein science topic and present it to the class.<br>Last but not least, you will gather hands on experience in a practical that will introduce you to basic techniques of protein biochemistry, such as Western blotting.                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Assessment<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <ul><br><li>Two Quick Tests during the lecture &#8211;

discipline across different biomedical research discipline. It aims to (i) identify unmet needs together with people with Parkinson\u2019s disease, (ii) to accelerate the transfer of knowledge generated on the bench (laboratory) to be translated back to bedside (clinical trials and care). This course will introduce the clinical and translational medicine field, addressing its evolution and fundamental concepts including (i) domain expertise, (ii) interdisciplinary collaboration and (iii) outreach and communication, with concrete examples in the context of neurodegenerative diseases e.g. Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD). Students will have the opportunity to visit the Parkinson\u2019s Research Clinic (PRC) at CHL (Centre Hospitalier de Luxembourg) and experience the daily clinical research routine and recruitment of people with PD for clinical studies. This course will also include hands-on laboratory practice of how researchers process the collected bio-samples from people with PD and make them available for subsequent molecular (e.g sequencing) and cellular (e.g. induced pluripotent stem cells) profiling and drug screening. In addition, this course will also introduce into biocomputational expertise, i.e. how to design a case report form (CRF), capture data from a clinical study using an electronic data capturing system (e.g. REDCap), how to curate and FAIRify (making data Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) the collected data and finally analyze the curated data for unlocking the potential of deep phenotypes patient cohorts for an earlier diagnosis and a better treatment.\u00a0 Overall the course integrates biocomputational, biological and medical expertise for a comprehensive translational concept.<br>                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Assessment<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <p>First session<\/p><br><ul><br><li>Written exam (50%)<\/li><br><li>Report of laboratory work (50%)<\/li><br><\/ul><br><p>Retake exam<\/p><br><ul><br><li>Oral exam<\/li><br><\/ul>                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Note<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <ul><br><li>The Fundamental Characteristics of a Translational Scientist DOI: 10.1021\/acsptsci.9b00022<\/li><br><li>Electronic Data Capturing (EDC) system \u2013 REDCap short video (5min)<\/li><br><li>FIAR principles publication<\/li><br><\/ul>                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n            <\/ul>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>    <\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section\n    id=\"tabpanel-583b52cc-d30f-43d1-9c06-bd97cd9a279d\"\n    aria-labelledby=\"tab-583b52cc-d30f-43d1-9c06-bd97cd9a279d\"\n    class=\"tab-panel fade hidden is-hidden\"\n>\n    <div class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-course-offer\">\n    <h3>Course offer for Semestre 2 (2025-2026 Summer)<\/h3>\n    \n<div id=\"accordion-module-69d04d6f0f8bf\" class=\"accordion accordion--theme\">\n            \n<div class=\"accordion__item\">\n    <h4 class=\"accordion__header\">\n        <button\n                type=\"button\"\n                class=\"accordion__button collapsed\"\n                aria-expanded=\"false\"\n                data-bs-toggle=\"collapse\"\n                data-bs-target=\"#accordion-panel-69d04d6f0f8e3\"\n        >\n            <span class=\"accordion__title\">\n                ISB501: Seminars and Practicals in Advanced Cell Biology                <span class=\"accordion__data\">\n                    <span class=\"accordion__data__item\">\n                        <span class=\"accordion__data__name\">ECTS credits:<\/span>\n                        <span class=\"accordion__data__value\">\n                            4                        <\/span>\n                    <\/span>\n                    <span class=\"accordion__data__item\">\n                        <span class=\"accordion__data__name\">Course code:<\/span>\n                        <span class=\"accordion__data__value\">\n                            MMCB-13                        <\/span>\n                    <\/span>\n                <\/span>\n            <\/span>\n            <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-down icon--lg\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-down\"><\/use><\/svg>        <\/button>\n    <\/h4>\n\n    <div id=\"accordion-panel-69d04d6f0f8e3\" class=\"accordion__collapse collapse\" data-bs-parent=\"#accordion-module-69d04d6f0f8bf\">\n        <div class=\"accordion__body p-0\">\n            <ul class=\"list-highlighted\">\n                <li class=\"list-highlighted__item items-start\">\n                    <header class=\"list-highlighted__header\">\n                        <h5 class=\"text-18\"><strong>Details<\/strong><\/h5>\n                    <\/header>\n                    <div class=\"list-highlighted__body\">\n                        <ul>\n                            <li><span class=\"text-dark font-heading font-bold\">Course title:<\/span> ISB501: Seminars and Practicals in Advanced Cell Biology<\/li>\n                            <li><span class=\"text-dark font-heading font-bold\">Number of ECTS:<\/span> 4<\/li>\n                            <li><span class=\"text-dark font-heading font-bold\">Course code:<\/span> MMCB-13<\/li>\n                            <li><span class=\"text-dark font-heading font-bold\">Module(s):<\/span> Module 2.1 Cell Biology &amp;

In particular we will focus on organoids from various tissues. An organoid can be defined as an artificially grown mass of cells or tissue that resembles an organ. This term has grown in use within the research field over the past few years as a result of advances in two distinct directions: the isolation and propagation of adult stem cell niches in 3D, and the adaption of 3D culture conditions for the directed differentiation of pluripotent stem cell (PSC) lines towards specific developing tissues.<br>Organoids have now been used to model disease, screen drugs, increase our understanding of normal human development and even interrogate biophysical principles of self-organisation. Organoids formed from patient-derived cell types are now in use for the evaluation of drug sensitivities and to validate disease-causing genomic variations. There is no doubt that organoid studies will act as stepping stones to more advanced regenerative medicine approaches, as well as to a better understanding of development, especially human development. Indeed, the field of organoid biology has grown at such a pace, and attracted such attention, that we have devoted this entire course to showcase organoid biology.<br>In this course we will use several recent publications concerning organoids. The publications will be presented and analysed with various approaches.                    <\/div>\n                <\/li>\n                \n                \n                                <li

Designed as part of the Master in Molecular and Computational Biomedicine at the University of Luxembourg, this course integrates cutting-edge research with clinical relevance to provide a comprehensive understanding of disease pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies. Students will begin by examining the role of immune cells in maintaining health and contributing to disease. The course then delves into autoimmune diseases, with a focus on type II-IV pathogenic immune reactions, illustrated through case studies of multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. A significant portion of the course is dedicated to cancer biology, with a special emphasis on cancer immunology. Students will explore the principles of onco-immunology, tumor immune evasion mechanisms, and the latest advances in immunotherapy. Real-world examples, including colorectal cancer, leukemia, and melanoma, are used to contextualize these concepts. The role of the tumor microenvironment and the microbiome in influencing treatment outcomes is also discussed. Interactive learning is a key component of MMII. Students participate in a workshop on immunotherapy, where they critically assess current limitations and propose innovative research directions. These discussions reinforce course content and encourage collaborative learning.
