| Course objective : | The philosophy of the course of culture of cells is to communicate to the students the basic techniques used for the culture of animal or human cells in vitro
The objective continued are: - maintenance of the viable isolated cells or the functional units apart from the organism; - application of good laboratory practices; - handling, which constitutes the best training for the student. |
