Aim and content
This course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD Students from NorDoc member faculties. All other participants must pay the course fee.
Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at a Danish university, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. This also applies to PhD students from NorDoc member faculties. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to applicants on the waiting list.
Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
1. Gain insight into the basics of matrix biology and relate this to their own field of research
2. Gain appreciation for novel mechanisms of extracellular matrix regulation (immune response, circadian clock)
3. Understand analytical methods used in matrix biology and learn about cutting edge techniques
4. Effectively present their own work and discuss the work of others
5. Understand the importance of matrix composition, organization and modification for tissue specific function
Content
The role of the extracellular matrix in physiological, pathophysiological and pathological situations will be the main focus, and specifically the formation of collagen-rich and other matrix-rich tissues, and the coupling between matrix structure and function in health and diseases will be taught. The newest matrix research and technical approaches will be reported from areas like fibrosis, vasculature, infection, cancer and musculoskeletal disorders.
Participants
No previous knowledge of matrix Biology is required. The course covers the basic background and key themes of matrix biology in the context of the latest research in cancer, circadian biology, wound healing as well as tissue development. All participants will have the opportunity to present and discuss their PhD projects, and to think creatively about what they have learn in a group work setting.
Relevance to graduate programmes
The course is relevant to PhD students from the following graduate programmes at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences, UCPH:
Basic and Clinical Research in Musculoskeletal Sciences
Molecular Mechanisms of Disease
Cellular and Genetic Medicine
