Anatomie du Bois (FUN)

Sci: Energy & Earth Sciences Sci: Environment

Par ses multiples expériences, l’homme a découvert quelles étaient les meilleures essences de bois pour répondre à chacun de ses besoins en matériaux ou en sources d’énergie. Le premier objectif de ce MOOC est de relier le bois en tant que tissu dans l’arbre et le bois en tant que matériau dans la vie des hommes. A la croisée de ces deux mondes, se trouve l’anatomie, c’est-à-dire la structure cellulaire, qui permet de comprendre presque toutes les propriétés du bois.

Advanced Neurobiology I (Coursera)

Health & Society

Hello everyone! Welcome to advanced neurobiology! Neuroscience is a wonderful branch of science on how our brain perceives the external world, how our brain thinks, how our brain responds to the outside of the world, and how during disease or aging the neuronal connections deteriorate. We’re trying to understand the molecular, cellular nature and the circuitry arrangement of how nervous system works.

Anatomy of the Upper and Lower Extremities (Coursera)

Health & Society

This course has two main parts, one for the lower extremity and the other for the upper extremity. We will show how the various systems that supply and organize the limb control its function. There are a set of introductory lectures which will allow more experienced students to refresh their knowledge of the limbs and a guide to those with less experience. These lectures will be followed by detailed dissections of the extremities emphasizing locomotion for the lower extremities and hand positioning and function for the upper extremities.

Human structure is important to all of us as it has been for millennia. Artists, teachers, health care providers, scientists and most children try to understand the human form from stick figure drawings to electron microscopy. Learning the form of people is of great interest to us – physicians, nurses, physician assistants, emergency medical services personnel and many, many others. Learning anatomy classically involved dissection of the deceased whether directly in the laboratory or from texts, drawings, photographs or videos. There are many wonderful resources for the study of anatomy. Developing an understanding of the human form requires significant work and a wide range of resources.

Compartmental modelling is a cornerstone of mathematical modelling of infectious diseases and this course will introduce some of the basic concepts in building compartmental models, including how to interpret and represent rates, durations and proportions. You'll learn to place the mathematics to one side and concentrate on gaining intuition into the behaviour of a simple epidemic, and be introduced to further basic concepts of infectious disease epidemiology, such as the basic reproduction number (R0) and its implications for infectious disease dynamics.
