62. Biozentrum Biennial Report 2002-2003 - Teaching Activities Genetics, Immunology, Infection Biology, microbiology, Neurobiology, Pharmacology, The Biozentrum also offers a Graduate Teaching Program. http://www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/report0203/teaching.html

Teaching Activities Teaching Activities The Biozentrum educates scientists at the bachelor, master, doctoral and postdoctoral level. The particular advantage of the education at the Biozentrum is its direct integration into research. All lecturers are active, grant-holding scientists. The ratio of lecturers to students is also ideal and ensures optimal support for every student. Bachelor in Biology In 2003 the current biology curriculum introduced in 2000 was adjusted to the Bachelor/Master system according to the Bologna convention. The Bachelor curriculum takes three years to complete and is taught by lecturers of the Biozentrum and the Department of Integrative Biology. During the first two years of basic studies, the students receive the essential grounding in mathematics/statistics, physics, and chemistry, as well as introductory courses in biology. In addition, they are trained in ethics and attend optional courses in biology and non-biological subjects. After having completed the basic studies, the students must choose either molecular biology or organismic biology to be the main focus of their further studies, because the content of the third year, which consists of block courses lasting several weeks each, determines the Major of the Biology Bachelor. The block courses provide theoretical information which the students then turn into practice in the laboratory or in the field. Master in Molecular Biology Students with a Bachelor in Biology, Major Molecular Biology, are admitted to the fast track Master program that takes 1 year. The students work on their Master thesis and take additional courses in the field of molecular biology. The Master thesis will replace the current Diploma thesis as of 2004 and is the students’ real introduction to research. At the Biozentrum, the students can specialize in Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Biophysics, Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, Genetics, Immunology, Infection Biology, Microbiology, Neurobiology, Pharmacology, and Structural Biology. A complete list of the diploma theses completed during the report period can be found on pp 7-9.

63. Teaching Activities TEACHING activities. The faculty of the Biozentrum participates in teaching at all biochemistry, microbiology and molecular genetics, and cell biology. http://www.biozentrum.unibas.ch/report9697/teaching.html

TEACHING ACTIVITIES The faculty of the Biozentrum participates in teaching at all levels, offering introductory courses as well as courses related to their scientific specialities. An important contribution to teaching is made by lecturers from other institutions in the Basel region, mainly the Basel Institute for Immunology, the Friedrich Miescher Institute and the research divisions of the Basel pharmaceutical industry. The Diploma in Biology II Sixty to 80 students currently enter the program each year. We are faced with the problem that the lecture halls are too small for some of the courses. A larger lecture hall is planned in a projected new building adjacent to the Biozentrum. However, this will not be available before the end of 1999, and no interim solution is in sight. The PhD program The Biozentrum offers graduate programs leading to the PhD degree in biochemistry, biophysics, cell biology, genetics, and microbiology. The degree requires participation in advanced courses, submission of a dissertation to the Faculty of Sciences, and terminates with a comprehensive oral examination. The program typically takes 3 years to complete. Most graduate teaching is done in the framework of a series of 3 year, theme-oriented cycles of courses. There are at present 9 of these cycles with a total of 43 independent courses. A list of the dissertations submitted during the period covered by this report is on pages Seminars in the Biozentrum The Biozentrum has a formal seminar series, the "Biozentrumsseminare", planned several months in advance and generally given by more senior scientists. Many other seminars are also given that cannot be fitted into this formal series either because they are arranged at short notice or because of scheduling conflicts. We call these "Informelle Seminare". They are, however, just as widely announced as the formal ones and many speakers are surprised to find themselves giving their "informal" seminar to a packed auditorium. These seminars play an important role in the life of the Biozentrum. The are perhaps the most important post-graduate educational activity that we offer, and many graduate student has secured his first post-doctoral position while sharing a post-seminar drink with the speaker.

Further, NABT has directed numerous educational projects funded through outside grants. One such program, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and conducted in partnership with the University of Georgia, was a three-year project to train middle school teachers in life science. Another NSF-funded program provided biotechnology equipment to secondary schools through a national loan program. A third involved the development and dissemination of guidelines for the safe conduct of DNA and bacterial manipulation experiments in high school biology classrooms. This project was funded by Pfizer, Inc., SmithKline Beecham, Sandoz Pharmaceuticals Corp. and Hybritech, Inc. NABT Grants Update Furthering Science With the release of the National Science Education Standards, NABT is posed to bring the best in biology education into the 21st century. We will develop three projects to help teachers at all levels incorporate the National Standards in their classrooms. NABT's Standards Task Force already had produced a draft Evaluation Instrument for Curriculum that measures how well teaching materials mesh with the standards. We will also develop Operation Biology, to bring together the best standards-based elementary teaching materials, and will develop a process-oriented authentic assessment for high school biology that emphasizes the elements of the National Standards.

Department of Microbiology Professor Akio Nomoto, Ph.D. Associate Professor Tetsuro Matano, M.D., Ph.D. Associate Takeshi Yamada, Ph.D., Seii Ohka, Ph.D. Organization Microbial disease has been recognized as the major threat to human health throughout the history. Despite the development of preventive and therapeutic interventions against some pathogenic microbes, infectious disease is still one of the most significant medical problems. On the other hand, microbial organisms have served as a useful model as well for elucidating the molecular mechanisms of a variety of biological events, providing useful insights into life science. Recently, efforts have also been initiated by a number of research groups to utilize animal viruses as a tool for human gene therapy. In order to familiarize students with these issues, importance of microbiology in medical education is increasing more rapidly than ever. To fulfill this requirement, our department, as the only basic microbiology unit in the Faculty, currently assumes a responsibility for teaching bacteriology, mycology, and virology to medical undergraduates.
