Description of the modifications to the Q1 2020-2021 online assessment procedures (Covid-19) online or face-to-face (according to assessment schedule)
If the health situation permits, the internship will take place inside laboratory of histology and the examination will take the form of a written test in an auditorum of UMONS. This exam will take the form of open questions on the histological techniques covered during the internship.
If the health situation prevents an inside internship from being held, the theoretical material relating to the implementation, protocols and purposes of the main histological techniques will be provided to students in the form of a PDF tutorial. The exam will then take place remotely, students will have to complete a questionnaire which will be sent to them by email on these techniques. These questions for reflection will allow them to assess their good understanding of the techniques and their field of application. The answers to this questionnaire will be used for the evaluation of the students.
Content of Learning Activity
The first part of the course is concerned with instrumentation (optical microscope) and the methods used to obtain informative images. The second part is devoted to traditional preparatory techniques for light and electron microscopy including fixation, sectioning and staining as well as histochemistry. The third section covers the various aspects of immunohisochemistry such as fixation and tissue preparation, antigen retrieval techniques, multiple immunostaining. The last section is an introduction to computer assisted-morphometry applied to histological sections
