This is a course organised in collaboration between TUD Faculty of Biology and MPI-CBG that qualifies the participants with a suitable academic degree (i.e. biology) to carry out animal experiments (function A and D) and in combination with three to five years of experience using experimental animals to also act as a project leader in animal experimentation (function B).

Also non-academic staff (i.e. technicians) may participate the course as it can be used for obtaining the so-called “Ausnahmegenehmigung”.

The following modules will be provided in the course:

Basic Module Theory Lectures 26.8.-1.9.2026 (~30h) - compulsory (this or equivalent course from recent years) for all participants to be able to join the Species Specific Module(s)
