| Please look at ANAT0110-A-a<br /><br /> The course of Cell, Organism and Population Biology is at a central and capital place in the training of the students engaged in the field of biomedical sciences. It must give the fundamental concepts which govern the life. The lessons are a true trip within the living world. From the smallest elements which constitute it, we will see how they organize themself in increasingly complex structures which acquire new properties and are at the same time the basis of the unity and of the large diversity of the living matter. We will spend time on the basic element of the life: the cell. We will study how it domesticated the essential energy and how it manages to remain from generation to generation by keeping its particular characteristics. We will consider then the multicellular organizations from the simplest to the most complex and will examine how, during evolution, they adapted to the environmental constraints. Ecology conceptswe will allow us to specify the impact of man on the living organisms. |

Introduction to topographic and clinical anatomy |
|
|
| Course objective : |
| | General biology preparing to biomedical and dental sciences, including introduction to molecular biology, general embryology and general genetics |
|
| The matter of the course is subdivided in chapters which will be seen in the following order:
- Molecules of life.
- The cell.
- Cellular energy metabolism.
- DNA, genes and chromosomes.
- from gene to protein.
- Cellular cycle, mitosis, meiosis and cell death.
- Introduction to molecular biology.
- From the origin of life to the diversity of the living world.
- Procaryotes.
- Protists.
- Fungi.
- Plants.
- From the unicellular organizations to the pluricellular organizations: advantages and disadvantages of the pluricellularity.
- Animal anatomy and physiology.
- The diversity of the animal world.
- Introduction to evolution of the living organisms.
- Concepts of ecology and geobiochimic cycles.
- Embryology.
- Genetics.
|
| | Introduction to human anatomy |
|
| The goals of that course are multiple:
-first: to give an overview of the general architecture of the human body to allow a good undserstanding of the principal physiological processes
-second: to give an integrative view of the anatomy
-third: to train the student with the 3D vision of the human body and its components by the use of the descriptive tools (from old tool (as section, schemes...) to niew tools (computer assisted imaging, 3D reconstruction) |
|
|
| Prerequisites : |
| | General biology preparing to biomedical and dental sciences, including introduction to molecular biology, general embryology and general genetics |
|
| The course will take into account the large disparity in biology of the first year students. |
| | Introduction to human anatomy |
|
| The student must fluent in french language and must control basic descriptive geometrical tools (axes, planes and projections) |
|
|
| Workshops : |
| | General biology preparing to biomedical and dental sciences, including introduction to molecular biology, general embryology and general genetics |
|
| Practical classes were conceived in order to show to the students some animal or plant cells and organisms; to familiarize them with various instruments or techniques (microscopy, drawing, dissection); to initiate them with observation and experimentation. Practical classes must also allow them to confront theory notions with a personal and more experimental approach of the living realities.
The presence to practical classes is mandatory. Students must be in possession of their student ID card. In case of absence, please send your medical certificate to the office of the logisticians (Bureau Pédagogique des études médicales - Tour de Pathologie 2 - B36 - Tour 4 - Niveau -1 - 4000 Liège) in the 3 working days after your absence.
Practical classes take place at Zoology Institute, 22 quai Van Beneden, 4020 LIEGE. |
| | Introduction to human anatomy |
|
| 5 workshops are organized (10 for medical students). Some workshops will be held in the "Institut of human Anatomy" and some will be avalaible on line on the WebCT course. Attendance is compulsory for both of them and subject to cotation. |
|
|
| Organization : |
| | General biology preparing to biomedical and dental sciences, including introduction to molecular biology, general embryology and general genetics |
|
| The theoretical course of biology is given during the first and the second four-monthly period.
In addition to the theoretical lessons, meetings of repetition are also organized. They allow the students to ask questions about the theory as well as about the practical classes. They must help them to integrate the various chapters.
If you have questions concerning the course, please ask first your questions during practical works or repetitions. Prepare your questions before going to these meetings. If it is not possible, and only in this case, you can contact the teaching team by e-mail to fix an appointment (see the section contacts). |

|
| Schedule for each section will be published in the "vademecum"On line ressources are available trough "My Ulg" > "WebCT". >
Slides, demonstrations, sketches performed during lectures, discussions and auto-evaluation can be found on that on line course . A special workshop "how to use your on line course" will be organized in october or november.http://www.webct.ulg.ac.be/webct/logon/137759553001 (http://www.webct.ulg.ac.be/webct/logon/137759553001" target="_blank) |

|
| Theoretical Cours
The course of biology does not include anymore a syllabus. The matter of the course are the topics taught during the ex cathedra lessons. The slides will be always available on the MyULg.Professor Castronovo recommends the use of the book entitled "Biology" (Campbell & Reece) as textbook. This book will help everybody to better integrate the matter of the lessons.
Reference : BIOLOGY, Neil Campbell and Jane Reece, PEARSON Education, 7th edition. For those who wish to buy a second hand book, the previous edition is also appropriate.
Beginning of the academic year, it is possible to order this book near the pedagogical team in order to get a discount.
Practical classes
Heading: "Guide de Travaux pratiques de Biologie animale et végétale"), Pr Castronovo, édition 2010-2011 |
| | Introduction to human anatomy |
|
| A syllabus is published each year 2008-2009 sylabus edition is downloadable from the online course and purchasable to the "Presses Universitaires".
A textbook edition with coloured illustrations should be available soon.Reference book: Possession of that reference book is not essential, illustrations from the lectures, syllabus and demonstrations should be of suffisance for most students.
Nevertheless, we recommand " Gray's Anatomy for students" (Drake, Vogl, Mitchell) (Elsevier editor) (french version available) |
|
|
| Assessment : |
| | General biology preparing to biomedical and dental sciences, including introduction to molecular biology, general embryology and general genetics |
|
| In-Year Assessments
Tests on practicals and/or repetition sessions, including related theoretical knowledge. Tests will include multiple-choice questionnaires, True/False questions with explanations and open questions so as to allow students to learn about the different question types and find out about the expected knowledge and understanding level.
Assessments during the exam period
For theory and practicals, tests will include multiple-choice questionnaires, True/False questions with explanations and open questions.
For more information, please read the « Modalités d'évaluation et de délibération » for your section and available on the Medical college website (http://www.facmed.ulg.ac.be/).
