Presentation
Urinary and Reproductive Systems: Integrative study of the structure and function of the Urinary and Reproductive systems, male and female: anatomy, histology, physiology, biochemistry and biophysics; pathologies and aetiology and pharmacological aspects
Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
Acquire knowledge and skills on the structure and function of 1) Urinary System/Renal System, 2) Male and Female Reproductive Systems, and 3) Prenatal Development, Growth and Aging, at the level of organs and systems in an integrated perspective anatomy, histology, physiology, biochemistry and biophysics and the main changes related to the various pathologies including genetic, congenital and environmental diseases) and pharmacological aspects
Knowing methods of treatment of renal failure and assisted reproduction techniques.
Become familiar with medical practice and specific terminology, discuss clinical cases, and participate in clinical seminars
Develop skills in oral and written communication, group work and critical analysis.
Educating for health, providing students with knowledge, attitudes and values to help them make decisions that involve the promotion and improvement of health.

Teaching Methods
Classes T, TP, S, OT:
T, TP and S given by expository method with slide and/or film projection
T for teaching syllabus
TP for description of medical practice in which students participate in the discussion or presentation of topics
S integrators and illustrative of the matter by guest lecturers
TO for clarification of doubts and support for carrying out the work
TP and S are mandatory (75% attendance)
The evaluation is done by a final exam (theoretical and written) that covers all the contents of the UC with a single test (80%) + Work presentation (20%)
