  Description
Practicals using information and communication technologies (ICTs) in computer rooms Experimental trials, problems or computer simulations. Students will perform or follow an experimental protocol following the good laboratory practices, the guide of good practices for handling experimental animals and/or genetically manipulated microorganisms. In these sessions, students and the lecturer will discuss the results obtained, analysing their importance and interest.
Personal tuition Specialised online face-to-face tutorials using educational support platforms. Student assistance in self-study activities. - Analysis of relevant scientific articles on current topics related to the course. - Preparation of written reports, oral presentations or seminars on experimental or bibliographical work. - Carrying out autonomous tasks online or in a computer classroom.
Lecture Lecture session Presentation or discussion of the contents of the course.

Personalized attention
