Course contents :
 |
| This specialized teaching about different themes permits to the student and teacher to go so far as they want in the understanding of reproduction mechanisms. The most important chapters talk about the pituitary gland, the ovaries and the placenta what are subjects very studied in our laboratory.
An abundant literature completes this teaching and the contact with specialists is encouraged. Also the course contents are available in the laboratory: CD, powerpoints, articles, addresses of european collaborators.
A series of 15 laboratories collaborating with the laboratory of reproductive physiology are available to realize vocational courses or collaborations. Very close to the scientific research, this teaching consists into a solid initiation to the experimental process based on literature review and international exchanges with specialists.
Presently, the access to the literature cited as reference is facilitated by the Orbi bank. |
