  • Control the molecular, morphological and functional approaches of normal and pathological conditions
    • Explain the relationships between molecular, morphological and functional changes and pathological conditions, their clinical signs and symptoms
  • Demonstrate interpersonal skills developed within a medical context
    • Understand the basic rules of French and of English (grammar, punctuation, connectors, etc.).
    • Use a rich vocabulary accurately linking concepts and words, and understand the prefixes and suffixes used in the medical field

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this course, the student will understand how the different sub-systems of the brain work (motricity, vision, pain, language, memory, sleep and dreams, etc).

At the end of this course, the student will be able to understand how many pharmacological drugs act on the brain.

At the end of this course, the student will be able to easily understand the basic mechanisms of the main brain diseases.

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance


The EU is made up of three AAs:
M-NEUR-202 - theoretical part 1: 16h
M-NEUR-204 - theoretical part 2: 10h
The two theoretical parts form a coherent whole which makes it possible to approach the sensory, motor and cognitive functions M-NEUR-205 - part 3: practical medical concepts taught in the audience

 

Prior Experience

M-NEUR-101 : general neurophysiology

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q1 UE assessment

  • Written examination - Face-to-face

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

The exam is a global test. The questions cover all the course material and practical notions.

Each question contains 3 propositions. For each proposition, the student must answer TRUE or FALSE. A point is obtained if the student correctly answers the three proposals.

 

Method of calculating the overall mark for the Q1 UE assessment

The overall grade is awarded on the basis of the written exam only.

Type(s) and mode(s) of Q1 UE resit assessment (BAB1)
