Learning Outcomes of UE

Students will master essential notions of general biochemistry to easily take up courses of human and pathological biochemistry, genetics or molecular biology. They will be able to use the acquired theoretical knowledge to solve exercises and deal with simple clinical problems.

Content of UE

<strong><u>The three mains parts of the lecture will be:</u></strong> 1. metabolism of sugars and lipids
2. Métabolism of proteins and amino acids
3. Structure, function and replication of molécules of information
In addition, the lecture (face-to-face) will be associated with practical works (supervised work, exercices and e-learning)

Prior Experience

Not applicable

Type of Assessment for UE in Q1

• Written examination
• Practical test
• Quoted exercices
• eTest

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

Lecture = MCQ and/or open-ended questions
Practical work = evaluated report, scored exercises and eTest + final test Weighting for pratical work on Q2 = 10% of final score
  Please note that access to the <u><strong>interrogation of e- test and final examination</strong></u> requires at least 80 % of participation to e-Tests during the year (this will be checked on a specified date during the year) . <u><strong>Access to practical work</strong></u> is also subject to an interrogation ( a score of 5/10 is required and if a 4/10 score is obtained the student will receive a supplementary question to decide on his participation or not to pratical work) .

Type of Assessment for UE in Q2
