Description and Contextualization of the SubjectToggle Navigation
The main objective of this subject is to provide students with the basic knowledge of structures of the human body from the point of view of its macroscopic aspects (anatomy).
The course is part of the Fundamentals of Biomedicine module.
This course uses knowledge acquired from the biology courses of secondary and sciences high school.
The knowledge taught in this course will be used in the following subjects:
- Human Fisiology
- Biomaterials
- Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
- Human Fisiopathology
- Fundamentals of Surgery
- Biomedical Equipment
- Drug development and evaluation
- Biomedical Image Processing
- Fundamentals of Biomedical Signal Processing

MethodologyToggle Navigation
Regarding the work methodology, there are 3 teaching strategies that are complementary together with the autonomous work of the students:
Lectures: theoretical sessions in which the theoretical contents of the subject will be developed, through the transmission of knowledge by the teacher in the classroom. As support, drawings, projected presentations and diagrams are used.
Classroom Practices: exposure of problem solving and case studies related to the theoretical-practical concepts. In the methodology used in classroom practices, theoretical concepts will be applied to practical cases (exercises, problems or case studies), which will be solved in the classroom as well as in the hours outside the classroom.
Laboratory Practices: experimentation related to theoretical or practical concepts by means of laboratory equipment. The practical sessions are taught in the practice room set up for this purpose. In these practices, students are provided with a variety of material, including drawings, images, videos and 3D models. Students will use this material based on scripts provided to them in order to learn about and describe the different structures. In this methodology that allows small groups, the teacher will act as a guide and tutor in the process of resolution and analysis of the proposed practices and developments.
Assessment systemsToggle Navigation
- Continuous Assessment System
- Final Assessment System
- Tools and qualification percentages:
- Written test to be taken (%): 20
- Multiple-Choice Test (%): 40
- Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 20
- Team projects (problem solving, project design)) (%): 20
Ordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation
Regarding the evaluation, students are entitled to both a continuous evaluation and a final evaluation.
A continuous evaluation system will be used to assess the progress of each student throughout the training period, complemented by a final test on the official date established for the exams. The systems and instruments for the continuous evaluation, the weight of each test or activity on the grade of the course, as well as its obligatory nature or the need to obtain a minimum grade to pass the course, are those specified in this Teaching Guide.
Students may renounce to the continuous evaluation and be evaluated exclusively by the final evaluation system, for which they must apply in writing to the faculty responsible for the subject within 9 weeks from the beginning of the term.
The student may refuse the call. Whether it is a final evaluation or continuous evaluation, failure to take the final evaluation tests will mean the waiver of the corresponding call, with the grade of not presented.
The continuous evaluation will include the work from the practices (20%) and team work (20%).
The final test (60%) will be a theoretical-practical test in which there will be a multiple-choice test (40%) and a written test to be developed (20%).
It is a requirement to pass the theoretical-practical test to pass the course and to be able to add the percentages obtained in the continuous evaluation. If the minimum grade criterion is not met, the grade obtained in the theoretical-practical test will automatically become the final grade.
Extraordinary Call: Orientations and DisclaimerToggle Navigation
In general, the same criteria will be followed as for the ordinary call.
The evaluation in the extraordinary call will be carried out exclusively through the final evaluation system. If the results of the continuous evaluation have been positive, these may be kept for the extraordinary call, and in the case of negative results, the student will be able to obtain 100% of the grade in the extraordinary exam.
Compulsory materialsToggle Navigation
White coats are required to attend the practical sessions in the laboratory.
