• Skill 4: Master communication techniques.
• Communicate, in English both orally and in writing, their findings, original proposals, knowledge and underlying principles, in a clear, structured and justified manner.
• Skill 5: Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
• Aquire new knowledge independently.
• Pursue further training and develop new skills independently.
• Skill 6: Apply scientific methodology.
• Critically reflect on the impact of their discipline in general, and on the contribution to projects.
• Demonstrate thoroughness, independence, creativity, intellectual honesty, and ethical values.

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of this course, students will have a general knowledge of all experimental approaches to art related to biology and their potential

Content of UE

- Physicochemical approaches associated with peptides / proteins (Prof. R. Wattiez, Dr. B. leroy) 
- Imaging (light and electron microscopy, immunocytochemistry ..) (Dr. P. Flammang) 
- Associated Approaches to Molecular Biology (Dr. F. Coppée)  - Approaches related particularly to small molecules / peptides (NMR, Phage display ..) (Dr. S. laurent)

Prior Experience

    Notions of Biology, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology and Chemistry

Type of Assessment for UE in Q1

• Presentation and/or works
• Oral examination

Q1 UE Assessment Comments

Each student will be assessed on oral presentation of an article focusing on one or several novel experimental approaches in the world of biology. The evaluation will be based on: 

- The quality of oral presentation (efficiency of scientific communication (weighted 30%) 
- Mastery of concepts and methods discussed in the course (weighted 30%) 
- Answers to specific questions presented and the section of general biology (weighting: 40%)  

Type of Assessment for UE in Q3

• Presentation and/or works
