Kursens startsida

Welcome to this course in Biological Drugs

Our mission with this course is to introduce you the field of biologics and to also guide you in how you develop a protein-based drug. We will provide you with lectures that focus on development aspects of the drug as well as challenges with both the development phase and the drugability of the molecule. We also aim to give you lectures that provide you with the current clinical use of antibody-based drugs. To guide you in your learning around protein-based drug development we will have a theoretic lab throughout the course.

The course will run primarily on campus although some lectures might be via zoom. If so, we will inform you well ahead. 

Re-exam: 2021-12-10 8:00-12:00 in B1:3

 

Q/A session

Follow up on size limit for DNA vectors: Most plasmids can tolerate inserts of around 15 kb up to 25 kb. There are also some high capacity vector formats, such as yeast and bacterial artificial chromosome vectors that can be used for even larger inserts. You can find more information in this paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7120981/ 

 

Course start: 2021-09-30 9:15 Information. 

You register on the course via web registration in Ladok and it is open 2021-09-23--09-30

First days

The first few days, the two courses 3FB025 and 3FB028 are run separately, due to your different backgrounds and slightly different learning outcomes. After these days, the two courses are run together as one.
