Course Objective

Biobanks are current and important infrastructure blocks in terms of health sciences today.
This course aims to introduce the importance of biobanking and the components of biobanking.
Biobanks have transformed from simple biological sample repositories to complex and dynamic units.
In biobanks, many researchers and health professionals working in different fields collaborate to obtain biological samples and collect relevant data.
Biobanks are professional structures. Workflows are organized with strict rules.
This course will include creating high-quality medical record systems, connecting large databases to each other, and increasing students' awareness of the necessary regulations regarding ethical issues that may be encountered in the biobanking process.
Biobanks are governed by legal regulations.
This course aims to discuss the legal and ethical regulations mentioned in biobanking as well as the difficulties encountered.

Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods

Although the course is theoretical, it will be prepared and presented in the form of case discussions and these activities will be handled together with both students and instructors.
The course will be taught with interactive methods.
Students are expected to come to the course prepared in advance by using the resources and guidance provided.
Methods: interactive presentations, group work, group discussions, student presentations, live visits of sample applications on site.

Assessment Methods

Further Notes About Assessment Methods

As interactive manner, lectures will be handled with their theoric bases and structured-case-studies. Students are expected to be read lecture notes given by course coordinators before the lecture
Methods: Interactive presentations, group discussions, student presentations and prepared project presentations.

Assessment Criteria

The courses will be handled interactively with theoretical foundations and structured studies.

The efficiency of the course based on interactive study: Since there is a structuring in the course on existing knowledge, students are expected to come to the course energetic, motivated and prepared with theoretical knowledge.

Students are expected to come to the course by preparing the topics and details suggested by the course coordinators before the course.

Methods: Interactive presentations, group discussions, student presentations and prepared project presentations.

Language of Instruction

Turkish

Course Policies and Rules

Before the classes, students should prepare to gain knowledge about the substructure of the subject.

Doctoral courses are areas where discussion of the higher level of knowledge on the subject is necessary.
