Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Scientific skills
• Implement and independently carry out an experimental approach, validate a model by comparing its predications with experimental results, assess the limitations of the model's validity, and identify sources or error.
• In response to situations and aware of the methodological limitations: - Use common techniques of biochemistry, molecular biology, cell biology, studies of tissues and organs (i.e. link a macroscopic phenomenon to microscopic processes). - Use an experimental device in a biological model, know and use the concepts and techniques of animal physiology.
• Use acquisition and data analysis software specific to biomedical sciences
• Be familiar with biomedical science research tools, including bioinformatics tools.
• Use the main measuring instruments and identify sources of error.
• Appropriately select measuring instruments, analyse and process the signal obtained
• Use basic mathematical tools
• Master the statistical tools for life sciences
• Be a responsible researcher: - Know how to base their reasoning on data obtained from scientific literature. - Know how to integrate an ethical dimension in their reasoning. - Be loyal (to the facts, to the team, and to intellectual property). - Do not tamper with results. - Do not exploit the work of others. - Demonstrate experimental rigor.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this course, the students will be able to  :

- explain the concepts of risk assessment and Health impact studies

- describe the different parts constituting a health impact study

- Search in the literature the appropriate data to assess the risk associated with the exposure of the environment and humans to a toxic substance

- identify the most appropriate source to derive a a Reference Toxicology Dose
- Detemrine a Reference Toxicological Value according to the INERIS method

Content of UE

1. Basic steps of the risk assessment ( Listing of risks, identification of hasards, dose-response relationship, determinaiton of critical effect an dtarget  organ, evaluation of exposures, risk characterization)

2. Calculate RTV

3. Case studies

Prior Experience

bascis in general toxicology

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

For this assessment, the students receive a toxicological data file concerning a specific pollutant. Based on this file, they must calculate the TRV for a given expisition scenario

Type of Assessment for UE in Q2

• Graded tests

Q2 UE Assessment Comments

Not applicable

Type of Assessment for UE in Q3

• Graded tests

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q3 UE assessment

same as Q1

Q3 UE Assessment Comments

same as Q1

Type of Resit Assessment for UE in Q1 (BAB1)

• N/A

Q1 UE Resit Assessment Comments (BAB1)
