Evaluation of the course: At the end of the course an assay should be prepared about an epigenetic experiment with detailed description of at least one technique (1-3 pages). The assay should contain the following sections: I. Introduction: significance of the chosen research topic, outline of the experiments II. Methods: detailed technical description of the applied molecular biological method(s) emphasizing its novelty, applicability and potential limitations; bioinformatic analyses of the obtained epigenetic data III. Results: presenting the most important results achieved in a real experiment or listing potential results (based on publications) IV. Conclusions: discussing the results V. References The assays will be evaluated by the Organizers of the course. The grade „Acceptable” is given for suitable professional presentation in Hungarian language. Fort the „Excellent” grade a suitable professional presentation should be done in English. In case of unacceptable assay, there is one possibility to correct it and resubmit it.
