Histology of Systems: A 6-ECTS Subject in Biomedical Sciences at UAB, Summaries of Histology

Information about a compulsory 6-ECTS subject called 'Histology of Systems' offered in the second year of the Biomedical Sciences degree at the Autonomous University of Barcelona (UAB). The subject focuses on the cellular and tissue organization of various human organs and systems, including the digestive, excretory, cardiovascular, endocrine, respiratory, and reproductive systems. Students are expected to have a basic understanding of histology and physiology. The teaching methodology includes lectures and seminars, with assessments based on individual tests and group seminars.

Prerequisites
There are no official prerequisits. However, a basic knowledge of Cell Biology and Histology of tissues is
recommended.
Objectives and Contextualisation
This is an obligatory subject in the 2n year, concerning the cellular and tissue bases of human organs and
systems. It has been designed assuming students have a basic knowledge of Histology and Physiology that
will facilitate they acquire a comprehensive understanding and an integrated approach to the organization of
human organs.
The subject gives the basic knowledge to undertand the subject of Anatomy of pathology next year.
The main goals of the subject are:
a) Understand the cellular and tissular organization of the different organs and systems of the human body.
b) Recognize and identify at the microscopic level the different organs and systems of the human body.
c) Relate the tissular composition of the organs with their function.
Competences
Act with ethical responsibility and respect for fundamental rights and duties, diversity and democratic
values.
Display knowledge of the bases and elements applicable to the development and validation of
diagnostic and therapeutic techniques.
Display knowledge of the basic life processes on several levels of organisation: molecular, cellular,

Prerequisites

There are no official prerequisits. However, a basic knowledge of Cell Biology and Histology of tissues is recommended.

Objectives and Contextualisation

This is an obligatory subject in the 2n year, concerning the cellular and tissue bases of human organs and systems. It has been designed assuming students have a basic knowledge of Histology and Physiology that will facilitate they acquire a comprehensive understanding and an integrated approach to the organization of human organs.

The subject gives the basic knowledge to undertand the subject of Anatomy of pathology next year.

The main goals of the subject are: a) Understand the cellular and tissular organization of the different organs and systems of the human body.

b) Recognize and identify at the microscopic level the different organs and systems of the human body.

c) Relate the tissular composition of the organs with their function.

Competences

Act with ethical responsibility and respect for fundamental rights and duties, diversity and democratic values. Display knowledge of the bases and elements applicable to the development and validation of diagnostic and therapeutic techniques. Display knowledge of the basic life processes on several levels of organisation: molecular, cellular,

Display knowledge of the basic life processes on several levels of organisation: molecular, cellular, tissues, organs, individual and populations. Make changes to methods and processes in the area of knowledge in order to provide innovative responses to society's needs and demands. Students must be capable of applying their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional way and they should have building arguments and problem resolution skills within their area of study. Students must be capable of collecting and interpreting relevant data (usually within their area of study) in order to make statements that reflect social, scientific or ethical relevant issues. Students must be capable of communicating information, ideas, problems and solutions to both specialised and non-specialised audiences. Students must develop the necessary learning skills to undertake further training with a high degree of autonomy. Students must have and understand knowledge of an area of study built on the basis of general secondary education, and while it relies on some advanced textbooks it also includes some aspects coming from the forefront of its field of study. Take account of social, economic and environmental impacts when operating within one's own area of knowledge. Work as part of a group with members of other professions, understanding their viewpoint and establishing a constructive collaboration.

Assessment

The competences of this subject will be assessed through continuous assessment, which will include individual tests of theoretical and practical knowledge and seminars conducted in groups.

The evaluation system is organized in three sections, each of which is evaluated independently and will be assigned a specific weight in the final grade of the subject:

Written exams (80% of the overall mark): In this section, the knowledge acquired by each student is assessed individually with test-type exams. There will be two partial tests, eliminatory of subject, along the course and a final test of recovery (see programming of the asignatura).

Students who have obtained a grade lower than 4 (out of 10) in any of these tests will not be able to weigh it with the mark obtained in the seminars and, therefore, will have to take the resit exam in the maturity test. final.

Seminars (20% of the overall grade). This section assesses the ability of students in each group to analyze and synthesize, as well as the skills of group work and oral presentation.

The seminars will be valued as follows:

Written work

50%

The teacher evaluates (out of 10) the works submitted by each group of students (see submissions)

Oral presentation

20%

The teacher evaluates (out of 10) the skills of each group of students in the public presentation of their work

Inter-group qualification

Each group of students evaluates (out of 10) the groups that make the oral presentation of the work

Intra-group qualification

15%

Within each group, each student evaluates (out of 10) their classmates in the last seminar

TOTAL

100%

Attendance at seminars ismandatory. In case of not attending any of the sessions, for unjustified reason, there will be a penalty in the final qualification of the seminars:

Absence 1 session = 20% reduction of the grade. Absence 2 sessions = 40% reduction of the grade. Absence 3 sessions = 80% reduction of the grade.

  • All this evaluation system described can be modified or altered due to the health crisis generated by Covid-19.
