Learning unit contents

Human physiology / hemostasis and coagulation

Hemostasis physiology
 
Partim: Human biochemistry (C. Péqueux)
Biochemistry is studying the properties and reactions of molecules that contribute to living organism functions. Human biochemistry is focused on molecules and reactions that take place in the human body.
The main area of these lectures will be focused on: biochemistry of oxydative stress and of cancer.

Biochemistry

Biochemistry is studying the properties and reactions of molecules that contribute to living organism functions. Human biochemistry is focused on molecules and reactions that take place in the human body.

The objective of this course is to improve your understanding of the mode of action of different drugs or hormones such as aspirin, caffeine, curares, atropine, herceptine, amiodarone, oxytocin ... The lessons will be focused on basic cell regulation mechanisms that regulate cell function, molecular biology and which allow cells to communicate with each other.
Lessons will also be focused on some concern of public health such as biochemistry of cancers, menopause or oxydative stress for example.

 

Anatomical approaches

Fundamentals anatomical data required to understand
- physiological process
- medical imaging
- organ transp^lantation: heart, lungs, liver, pacreas, bowel and kidneys

Partim: Human biochemistry (C. péqueux)
The aim of this course is to go in depth with some biochemical concepts usefull for the Master in Public Health. Additionally, this course is also about human biochemistry basics related to various public health problems.

Biochemistry

The aim of this course is to revise some biochemical concepts usefull for the Master in Public Health. Additionally, this course is also about human biochemistry basics related to the mode of action of several drugs and hormones. These lessons will aim to give a better understanding of the biochemistry of some patholgies such as cancer or menopause.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

Human physiology / hemostasis and coagulation

For Mr Ghysens:
 
For Mr Peters:


For Mme Péqueux: The lectures are provided in amphitheater. It is divided into 4 lessons. There is no podcast available. Attendance to the course is not an obligation, however it is warmely recommended.

Biochemistry

The human biochemistry course will take place in hybrid mode with both face-to-face lectures and with videos (sounded slideshows) which will be posted on the eCampus platform. Each video will be accessible until the exam and can be watched at your convenience. The slides can be downloaded and be used as support during the viewing of the video. A question/answer session will be organized face-to-face or via videoconference depending on sanitary conditions. It is mandatory to watch the videos before the question/answer session.

Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)

Human physiology / hemostasis and coagulation

For Mr Ghysens:
 
For Mr Peters:


For Mme Péqueux: This part is a face-to-face course. The schedule is provided by the teaching office of the Medical School. No distance-learning is available.

Biochemistry

Blended learning


Further information:

The teaching of human biochemistry will follow a hybrid mode with face-to-face lessons and with  remotely and freely available online lessons via the eCampus platform. Face-to-face or videoconference sessions (depending on health conditions) will be organized at a fixed time available on Celcat. The slideshows and videos are available on the course's eCampus page.

Anatomical approaches

A schematic review of the anatomy, imaging and physiology is performed trough drawing sketshes with the sutdents.
