NOTE: THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION WITH A NEW TEACHER IN 2026

REMEMBER TO BRING A LAPTOP FOR EXERCISES


Lectures will be in person in building 341 in auditorium 23.


Lectures and exercises will take place on Discord (https://discord.gg/Qgw9M3SZA5). Please register with your full name. Will use Discord for online classes and collaboration with your project partners. Rather than emailing questions to the teaching staff, I encourage you to post your questions on discord.


The course has two main parts, the first half is lectures and exercises and the last half is project work ending with the exam on Friday 23rd of January 2026.


For the laptop if you have a secure laptop (e.g. work laptop from Statens Serum Institut for instance), please bring your personal laptop.
