This course is the first part of Experimental Animal Models and is intended to introduce students to the knowledge of Laboratory Animal Science.
None
To give adequate training so that students are able to apply scientific and technical aspects of Laboratory Animal Science in Biomedical Research experimental knowledge.
After completing the course, the student will understand the basis of Laboratory Animal Science regarding animal models of research, the methodology of animal handling and the factors that influence experimentation. You will learn the fundamentals of experimental design, research protocols in laboratory animals and alternative methods of animal research.
The student:
• Will be able to work in a multidisciplinary team.
• Will be able to integrate new knowledge through research and study, and deal with complexity.
• Will be able to able to apply the knowledge acquired in solving problems in a new or changing environment.
• Will be able to critically read scientific literature and recognize parts within the chosen line of research.
• Will have self-learning ability in the development of analytical techniques in the acquisition of new concepts from the field of molecular and cell biology, microbiology, pharmacology, anatomy, biomaterials, tissue regeneration and the search for new scientific information.
