Méditation et médecine en 2021 : éloge du care ? (FUN)

Offered by Université de Paris,
Méditation et médecine en 2021 : éloge du care ? (FUN)

Un parcours en 5 semaines pour Cultiver le prendre soin - S'interroger, Se nourrir, Ressentir, Respirer. Etudiantes en médecines, nous avons rencontré la méditation de pleine conscience comme une manière de rentrer en résonance, un moment avec soi, un souffle, une respiration, une manière de prendre soin de nous, pour mieux prendre soin des autres. Touchées par la vie, la mort, l’humain, l’impermanence, le doute, la peur, l'échec…Aujourd’hui femmes, médecins, nous l’avons transmis aux étudiants par l'enseignement.

What you will learn
At the end of this course, you will be able to:

  • Comprendre le besoin de care en santé à partir des challenges de la formation médicale en 2021.
  • Définir la méditation de pleine conscience en vous rapprochant de l'expérience, de déconstruire les croyances autour de la méditation et de percevoir sa place dans le soin.
  • D'appréhender la démarche scientifique interdisciplinaire des recherches sur le sujet de la méditation, donner envie, vous interroger.
  • Découvrir les éthiques du care et le lien entre méditation et care.
  • Saisir le lien entre prendre soin de soi, de l’autre et du monde. Comprendre en partie l’interdépendance et la notion d’expérience sensible.

Parce que la médecine se transforme, les étudiants d’aujourd’hui seront les médecins de demain. Parce que cultiver le sens du soin de soi, des autres et du monde est un essentiel, la faculté se questionne.
Dans ce MOOC, vous allez découvrir ce chemin du soin à la méditation, ou de la méditation au soin, à partir de l'expérience d'étudiant(e)s en médecine.
Ainsi, nous explorerons épisodes après épisodes

  • Comment prendre soin de soi pour prendre soin des autres à une époque où la santé mentale des soignants est mise à mal et le système hospitalier ébranlé ?
  • Comment passer d'une culture du pansement à une culture du care qui prend soin des ressources du vivant ?
  • Comment nourrir le sens du soin, particulièrement en médecine, individuellement et collectivement ?

Format
Ce MOOC propose chaque semaine, pendant 5 semaines, le visionnage de documentaires pédagogiques (une trentaine de minutes). Comme un voyage nous écouterons la voix d’être humains, étudiants, soignants, philosophes, enseignants, directeurs de soin, professeurs d’universités, ingénieurs, aumônier, méditants, chercheurs, artistes…
Des ressources variées, interdisciplinaires, (articles scientifiques, bibliothèque littéraire, poésies, …) sont mises à votre disposition et des activités réflexives (écriture, méditation, débat, défis) balisent votre avancée dans le MOOC.
Des événements, diffusés en direct sous forme de webinaires, permettront de rencontrer l'équipe pédagogique et les intervenants du MOOC pour approfondir certains aspects du chemin.

Innate Immunity (FUN)

More than a century ago, Elie Metchnikoff established the bases of cellular innate immunity when he discovered the mechanism of phagocytosis. However, during most of the XXth century, adaptive immunity (also known as specific immunity) focused most of the interest of the researchers, until Charles Janeway and Polly Matzinger revisited the definition of immunology. What was called “non-specific immunity” was renamed “innate immunity”, and the understanding of the sensing of the exogenous or endogenous dangers signals, and their identification revolutionized our understanding of the early mechanism aimed to defend the integrity of the host against any type of attacks including pathogens.

Today, although HIV replication can be controlled by antiretroviral treatment, HIV infection remains an outstanding global health issue, with 36.7 million infected people and 1 million HIV-related deaths in 2016, according to WHO. Half of the infected population does not have access to antiretroviral treatment and 2 million new infections are registered every year. In addition there is currently no cure for HIV and antiretroviral treatment needs to be maintained for life. In this MOOC we will review different aspects of HIV infection: from its biological origin and its identification as the causative agent of AIDS to the perspectives of eradication.
