Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

Students will be able to define biological nanostructures based on proteins, saccharides, lipids and nucleic acids and their properties and functions in living systems. Based on the knowledge obtained they will be able to characterize bionanomaterials and summarize their applications for instance in form of thin films and in devices such as biosensors, etc.
