Pesistä harjoittelemaan
by Olli Ahtola 06 May '09

06 May '09

Terve kaikille, Otetaanpas kaikki histonin pesisksetä kiinnostuneet tänään iltapäivällä klo 17:00 aikoihin pesisharjoittelua norssin kentällä. Haen henkilökohtaisesti liikuntahallilta välineitä paikalle. Tilanne on nyt joukkueen kanssa sellainen, että tarvittaisiin muutama pelaaja lisää ja naispuolisia sellaisia, että sekasarjan ehdot täyttyvät. Elikkäs nyt kaikki tyttölöiset norssin kentälle tänään klo 17:00. -Olli

Final BSc exam
by Lloyd Ruddock 05 May '09

05 May '09

Dear all, I have been asked about the nature of the exam on Thursday. It is not a memory test comprised of questions such as "which enzyme catalyses the interconversion of metabolite X to metabolite Y?", but is rather designed to be a test of general understanding of biochemical principles. Example questions from previous exams: Short length answer question: Ethanol is widely used as a disinfectant against prokaryotes and single cellular eukaryotes such as yeast. However, ethanol is produced by the brewing industry using such micro-organisms. How is this apparent contradiction resolved and how does ethanol act as a disinfectant? Medium length answer question: Organisms use multiple methods to ensure the correct localization of molecules and macromolecules within different subcellular compartments inside a cell. Briefly outline the different methods used and explain the importance for eukaryotic organisms of having different sub-cellular compartments. Long answer questions: 1) The regulation of cellular pH is essential for all living organisms. For Homo sapiens physiological pH is often cited as a value around 7.3, but various organs have other pH values e.g. the stomach has a pH value of less than 2. a) What is the physiological significance of the low pH of the stomach? b) In which sub-cellular compartments is the pH value different from 7.3? c) What is the importance of regulation of intra-cellular pH? d) What is the importance of regulation of extra-cellular pH in Homo sapiens? e) How are extracellular and outer membrane proteins adapted for the greater pH variance that can occur extracellularly compared with the pH variance that occurs intracellularly? 2) What mechanisms do cells use to regulate the rate of conversion between two metabolites? Note that long answer questions either tend to have multiple parts or are more "essay" type. For the medium and long answer sections you have a choice of questions to answer. Hope this helps rather than panics people. Best wishes, Lloyd

Dear all, One of the things each course convenor does each year is to check that the number of credits awarded for a particular course is appropriate, with any necessary corrections being made as courses evolve. This year it is clear that the Neurobiology course was under-creditted. Usually changes are not made retrospectively. However, this is the first year the course has run and, under the usual guidelines for calculating credits it is clear that the work required was significantly more than the 2.5op that was being awarded. A detailed evaluation suggests that the "average workload" associated with the course is circa 105 hours, which is equivalent to 4op. There will be a proposal at the next departmental council meeting that the credits for Neurobiology for future years will be changed to 4op and that, exceptionally, this will be made retrospective so that all students who took the course this year will be awarded 4op. At the moment this is just a proposal, but there is clear evidence that the change is needed and it is likely to be passed. Since the next departmental council is not until the end of this month (when many students have started to leave) I thought I would notify you of the likelyhood in advance. One further piece of news that does not seem to have filtered down to all students yet is that Thomas Kietzmann will be joining the department as the new Professor of Cellular Biochemistry in the late Autumn. Some of his group will arrive in the summer. Thomas works on the hypoxia response (http://www.chemie.uni-kl.de/forschung/bc/kietzmann/), which is essential for both normal cellular processes such as angiogensis and also diseases such as cancer growth. He will be teaching at both the BSc level and brining new courses at the MSc level to the Molecular and Cellular side of the degree. Best wishes, Lloyd

Vanhan tutkintojärjestelmän mukaan aloittaneet
by Tuula Koret 05 May '09

05 May '09

MUISTUTUS Jälleen kerran on ollut epäselvyyttä tutkinnoista. Joten muistakaa 1.8.2008 on astunut voimaan sääntö, jonka mukaan kaikkilla täytyy olla LuK-tutkinto suoritettuna ennen kuin voi anoa FM-tutkintoa. Ei siis kahta tutkintoa yhdellä kertaa. Tämä koskee myös vanhan tutkintojärjestelmän mukaan aloittaneita, sillä tuona päivänä kaikki siirtyivät noudattamaan uusia sääntöjä..
