Digestive system

Nephro-urinary system

Adaptation of teaching commitments following the COVID-19 pandemic for the May-June 2020 session

Teaching methods implemented : distance-learning

Students will be provided through an on-line platform with slides sets, syllabi (if available) and podcasts prepared by the teacher.

Cardiovascular system

Subject teaching is based on notes (PDF), slides and podcasts.
All notes and slides have been available on MyULiège since the start of the semester.
The Podcasts of Chapters I, II and III (as well as the beginning of Chapter IV) were recorded during lessons given in person before confinement and posted immediately, while the Podcasts of Chapters IV, V, VI, VII, VIII and X were gradually put online during the weeks of containment (Podcasts recorded during the year 2018-2019).
Chapter IX relating to homeostasis is removed from this year's subject.
A session to answer questions is organized on collaborate

Endocrine system and metabolism

The teaching of the topics is based on the slides which are very complete and the podcasts
All the slides have been available on MyULiège since the start of the semester.
The Podcasts of Chapters I and II (as well as the beginning of Chapter III) were recorded during courses given in person before confinement and posted immediately, while the Podcasts of Chapters III, IV, V, VI and VII were gradually published online during the weeks of confinement (Podcasts recorded during 2018-2019).
A session to answer questions is organized on collaborate.

Assessment subjects

All the material taught (see lesson plan above).

Cardiovascular system

The subject relates to Human, Normal and Pathological Biochemistry and Physiology, partim cardiovascular system, broken down in the following chapters:

The heart pump (Chapters I to V):
- Functional architecture (Chapter I)
   - Heart chambers
    - Valvular apparatus
- The automaticity of the pump (Chapter II)
    - The action potential
    - Neuro-vegetative modulation
- The cardiac cycle (Chapter III)
   - The driving unit
   - The pressure-volume loop
- Ventricular performance (Chapter IV)

Endocrine system and metabolism

The course deals with human biochemistry and physiology, part endocrine system and metabolism. In particular, it includes chapters
1. Introduction
2. Mechanisms of action of hormones
3. The hormones of energy metabolism
Energy metabolism
Insulin and diabetes
Glucagon
Adrenaline
Glucocorticoids
Thyroid hormones
4. Gastrointestinal hormones
5. Water, electrolytes and mineral elements
6. Growth
7. Reproduction
Chapters VIII (cytokines) and IX (mediators) are removed from this year's materia
