In addition, students will have the contents of the topics developed in this subject on the "Virtual Campus" platform in different formats (pdf, ppt, recordings, videos ...). |
Laboratory practice | The laboratory practices are configured as an essential part of the subject. During its development, aspects related to: - Identification of different regions of the nervous system - The use of animal models for the study of the nervous system in normal and / or pathological conditions - The use of mutant and transgenic lines in Neuroscience studies - The management of interactive pages, on-line Neuroanatomy atlases and web links related to practical contents. At the end of the internship period, students must submit a report on them. |
Document analysis | It will consist of individual reading of recent Neurobiology articles designated by the teaching staff and that complement the contents of the lectures. Subsequently, the students will present a brief summary of the assigned article, which will serve as the basis for the subsequent guided discussion. The materials necessary to develop this activity will be provided by the teaching staff, in advance, through the Virtual Campus platform.
