Molecular Micro Research Skills (Adv)

MICR3942

This Unit of Study focuses on practical skills that are essential for laboratory research in molecular microbiology. We will focus on three key areas: Environmental microbiology and the techniques required for the study of complex microbial communities; Microbial biotechnology, which explores how microbes can be used as cellular factories to produce useful products; and Medical microbiology, where gene deletions are used to study phenotypes important in microbial pathogenesis. Students enrolling in MICR3042 must also take the complementary Unit of Study MICR3032/3932.
