第1回（月日、時限）担当教員名 講義内容など
Through lecture and discussion series, students acquire knowledge and creativity to set proper research objective, select appropriate methodology, understand the significance of results, and to further design following experiments independently, concerning Molecular and Developmental Biology. In additions, students also learn and confirm general knowledge underlying each specific subjects.
Class meets every week. Topics to be discussed will be selected by students. Points to be learned include:
How to select papers.
Historical background and creativity of good scientific papers.
Structure of scientific papers.
How to interpretate the results.
Logical flow in scientific papers.
1. Zebrafish genetics and animal experiments
2. Recombinant DNA experiments
3. Gene expression analysis
4. Gene function analyses
5. Chemical biology experiments
6. Imaging analysis
