      Objectives of general skills

      • Describe, organise, analyse and prioritise the phenomena observed in the medical field
        • Understand the expression of biological realities in absolute or relative terms, the orders of magnitude, proportions and probability
        • Understand and use different graphical representations of numerical values and their relationships
        • Perceive spatial distribution, and understand two- and three-dimensional representations and interconvert them
        • Understand the chronology of a phenomenon and master the time scales and their representations
      • Demonstrate interpersonal skills developed within a medical context
        • Summarise, explain, and argue
        • Work in a team
      • Develop reasoning skills
        • Understand and apply the basic principles of reasoning (obtaining data, analysis, synthesis, comparison, the rule of three, syllogism, analogy, Boolean logic, etc.)
        • Understand and apply Bayesian inference
        • Use a hypothesis in inductive, deductive or abductive reasoning
        • Develop critical thinking, test and monitor conclusions understanding the domain of validity, and explore alternative hypotheses
      • Be a responsible practitioner
        • Be loyal to the facts, to the team, to intellectual property, confidentiality, etc.

      UE's Learning outcomes

      the student will have refined his knowledge in general physics (mechanics, fluids, optics, waves, electromagnetism and modern physics). He will understand the physical principles involved in different biological or biomedical applications as:
      -biomechanics,
      -blood flow,
      -elasticity,
      -hearing and vision,
      -nerve pulses,
      -biomedical imaging.
      Finally he will be able to develop a scientific method, to analyze experimental results, to estimate an error and to realize and interpet a graph.
