Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Objectives: In this course, students will learn about, present and discuss various relevant chemo & bioinformatics methods from current literature related to lipidomics.

Contents:
The following topics(areas) will be presented or worked on together: Lipid structure generation, nomenclature, lipid identification in mass spectra (rule-based methods, machine learning), in-silico generation of mass spectra from lipids, normalization methods for absolute quantification, visualization approaches for lipidomics data, multiomics data integration, critical examination and scientific discussion of research results.

Method:
Course content will be developed through lectures, discussions, oral presentations, and a final protocol. The presentation includes a lecture with presentation slides (30 min) followed by a discussion (20 min). Current publications from the scientific literature with chemo- or bioinformatics focus and relation to lipidomics will be discussed by students of the study program Chemistry with focus on Analytical Chemistry, as well as with participants of related disciplines. The discussion will take place together with all participants.

Assessment and permitted materials

- Active cooperation and participation in the discussions - oral presentation of a chosen topic / a publication in the context of the seminar - answering questions in the context of the discussion about your own presentation - timely submission of a topic-specific protocol. To ensure good scientific practice, the course director may invite students to a grade-relevant discussion after presentation and protocol submission, which must be completed positively.

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

Minimum Requirements: Attendance at the first unit of the seminar (preliminary meeting date) is mandatory. Attendance must be 75% overall, which is equivalent to 2 excused absences. Grades will be awarded according to the following point scheme: - 1 (very good): 100 - 91 points - 2 (good): 89 - 81 points - 3 (satisfactory): 80 - 71 points - 4 (sufficient): 70 - 61 points - 5 (insufficient): 60 - 0 points More than 60% of the maximum possible number of points must be achieved to obtain a passing grade. Each sub-performance must be completed at the end of the course.

Examination topics

Assessment standard: 100 points can be obtained for this course. These are divided into: - Collaboration: 30 points - Oral presentation and questions: 40 points - Protocol on the topic: 30 points

Reading list

In order to achieve the above learning objectives, supporting literature will be provided. The presentation and distribution of the topics and related literature will take place in the preliminary meeting.
