Vorlesungsverzeichnis

Students can obtain 3 ECTS for the active participation in the Journal Club (non graded, only pass or fail). The number of participants at the Journal Club is strictly limited to 10, and members of the NIP lab take precedence over external students. Thus in practice there is a limit of 2, 3 or maximally 4 external students per term, depending on the number of current NIP lab members.
