At the end of this theoretical and practical course, students will be able to understand, carry out and describe fundamental laboratory manipulations with a view to their Master's studies (thesis). This teaching unit is therefore reserved for students at the end of their bachelor cycle.
The aim of this course is to provide a theoretical and practical introduction to the basic methods used to study cells and tissues, in order to identify their fields of application, their advantages and their limitations.
Students achieve a practical approach of several basic methods and learn how to write a lab report.
The different methods are discussed in theory, to explain their basic principles and limitations. PowerPoint support and course notes are available.
The theoretical examination is oral or written. Assessment procedures are subject to change in the event of force majeure.
Practical work reports are assessed according to criteria specified by the assistant in charge. The weighting of theory and practical work in the final grade for the teaching unit (UE) is 60/40.
If a mark of less than 10 is awarded for either the practical work or the theory exam, the final grade for the UE will be set at the lower mark. In the event of a single failure in the theory exam, only the theory part will be taken at the August session. In the event of a single failure in the practical part, an oral or written examination on the practical part must be taken at the August session.
A TP grade higher than 10/20 may be carried forward to a subsequent academic year.
