This course, compulsory for all L1 students, will introduce the basics of epistemology and the scientific approach, as well as the tools needed to analyze controversies surrounding the sciences and alternative modalities. The scientific investigation of so-called paranormal phenomena, pseudoscience, pseudo-medicine, psychological aberrations, sectarian alienation, etc. will be covered, to make students aware of our cognitive biases and the rhetorical manipulations that can use them to convince or deceive. The ultimate aim of this course is to enable everyone to make informed choices, to research and sort information, and to protect themselves against techniques of influence and manipulation.

This course will be based on lectures and the viewing of various resources available on the Internet. You will be required to complete an entire course on Moodle and in class, which will then be assessed by MCQs.

The aim of this teaching unit is to provide students with the latest knowledge in cognitive neuroscience, so that they can make better use of their brain resources to learn, reflect, be critical of information and themselves, and solve problems more efficiently. The aim is to explain certain brain mechanisms involved in learning, so that students can take a closer look at the way they work, and help them choose more effective cognitive strategies from among those on offer. The UE also offers students ways to become better scientists, by avoiding cognitive biases in favor of a rigorous, innovative and creative scientific approach. Workshops and lectures will be offered in this respect in the TD. Portraits of great and inspiring scientists will also illustrate how science moves forward.

 Finally, as we are aware that multiplying sensory input channels stabilizes the memory trace, we offer part of our teaching in the form of forum theater for those who wish to do so. This lively formula enables students who wish to get involved in the game to be proactive in changing their learner profile, transforming them into actors both on stage and in life. For those who are not inclined to put themselves on stage, there is no obligation. Simply observing the play of others is a powerful awareness of unconscious mechanisms that are not at the service of their learning, and enables them to actively integrate the resources proposed to them.

 The brain is at the heart of human behavior. It is the body's control tower. It continuously receives a flow of information from both the external environment and the body. This information must be processed and analyzed rapidly, in order to propose an appropriate response. All these mechanisms, which at first glance appear complex, are based on simple biological mechanisms.

This compulsory course is aimed at all students in the SV License. It introduces the main tools of discrete probability which are useful to the biologist in understanding random phenomena involving counting variables. The course is set at a level accessible to students with only the basics of probability calculus covered in the second year of high school. The course focuses on concrete examples, leading on to modeling. 

• A preliminary section introduces the notion of sets, operations on sets and the simple formalization of propositions.
• The second part introduces the vocabulary of probability and covers elementary probability calculations (tables, trees) and conditional probabilities. The examples are based on real-life situations: calculating probabilities in a population stratified by age or gender, diagnostic tests (sensitivity/specificity), etc.
• The third part is devoted to the presentation of the main discrete law models: binomial, geometric, poisson and their applications. The notion of independent variables is presented in a heuristic way, the aim being to provide tools for calculating the expectation and variance of the sum of random variables.
• A few numerical simulations can be presented to illustrate the notion of fluctuation of a random variable or the convergence of the binomial distribution to the normal distribution or the poisson distribution.

In the lectures of this course, we describe each stage of the life cycle, starting with embryonic development (including organ development, cell differentiation and growth processes), through the acquisition of reproductive capacity (including the stages associated with meiosis and gametogenesis), and ending with fertilization. This life cycle is covered in detail in metazoans and angiosperms, and will consolidate your knowledge of the transmission of genetic information. This will enable us to solve problems in Mendelian genetics, including sex and epistasis effects, during the tutorials in this course.

This course will cover a number of disciplines, providing a basic overview of the Biosphere, Hydrosphere and Atmosphere, as well as their evolution since the planet's origin. The disciplines (and major themes) covered will be :

-Paleontology: Evolution, Biochronology and Geological Eras, Biodiversity and Past Crises.

-Climatology and Oceanology: How is climate studied? What is the role of the ocean and the terrestrial biosphere? Faced with today's global challenges, tools are being developed to better characterize the mechanisms of climate change and their impact on terrestrial and marine environments, from the past to the future, notably through the modification of biogeochemical cycles on a planetary scale. Environmental geochemistry will be a key method for characterizing both anthropogenic and natural footprints.

The main objectives are to understand how these envelopes interacted with the Geosphere in the past (covered in greater depth in the HAT102T geology course) and to be able to analyze a natural landscape today in terms of its evolution over geological time.

The "Biochemistry and Molecular Biology of the Cell 1" course follows on from the S1 "From Molecules to Cells" course, which laid the structural foundations of living organisms. In this course, students will be introduced to the basics of biochemistry, replication, transcription, translation, intracellular movements and bioenergetics.

This UE will be supplemented by UE HAV204V for L1 SVSE students.

It will be followed by L1 TEE and L1 Chemistry.

This compulsory course is aimed at all students in the SV License. It introduces the main tools of discrete probability which are useful to the biologist in understanding random phenomena involving counting variables. The course is set at a level accessible to students with only the basics of probability calculus covered in the second year of high school. The course focuses on concrete examples, leading on to modeling. 

• A preliminary section introduces the notion of sets, operations on sets and the simple formalization of propositions.
• The second part introduces the vocabulary of probability and covers elementary probability calculations (tables, trees) and conditional probabilities. The examples are based on real-life situations: calculating probabilities in a population stratified by age or gender, diagnostic tests (sensitivity/specificity), etc.
• The third part is devoted to the presentation of the main discrete law models: binomial, geometric, poisson and their applications. The notion of independent variables is presented in a heuristic way, the aim being to provide tools for calculating the expectation and variance of the sum of random variables.
• A few numerical simulations can be presented to illustrate the notion of fluctuation of a random variable or the convergence of the binomial distribution to the normal distribution or the poisson distribution.

In the lectures of this course, we describe each stage of the life cycle, starting with embryonic development (including organ development, cell differentiation and growth processes), through the acquisition of reproductive capacity (including the stages associated with meiosis and gametogenesis), and ending with fertilization. This life cycle is covered in detail in metazoans and angiosperms, and will consolidate your knowledge of the transmission of genetic information. This will enable us to solve problems in Mendelian genetics, including sex and epistasis effects, during the tutorials in this course.

The primary aim of this teaching unit is to introduce students to scientific ecology in all its diversity. Particular attention is paid to the definition of scientific ecology, in relation to the meaning of the term "ecology" (political ecology or ecologism) in the media and for the general public. The place of the environment in the scientific study of ecology is also clarified. With the help of tutorials and practical exercises, three major themes in ecology are covered: paleoecology, functional ecology& evolutionary ecology. It is important to note that these themes are supported by a particularly active scientific community in Montpellier.

This teaching unit is designed to provide a general context for understanding the Earth sciences and biology, while taking into account the fields of the Humanities and Social Sciences. Today's Earth is not detached from its past. To understand the impacts of environmental and climatic transformations on planet Earth, a diachronic (long time, change over time) and synchronic (spatial variations) approach is required.

Accordingly, this EU presents the history of the Earth through geological time. It discusses the structure, composition and processes of the Earth. Issues, concerns and problems related to natural hazards are also included. The lessons will also provide students with the necessary grounding to understand the societal issues surrounding climate and environmental questions. The spin-offs of this course are essential for the well-being of tomorrow's society, enabling us to train young citizens or future workers capable of analyzing, criticizing and thinking about past, present and future environmental and climate issues, and of participating in decision-making in societal debates on environmental risks. This course has therefore been designed by teacher-researchers from different scientific fields (Earth and Water Sciences, Ecology, Philosophy, Political Science), demonstrating that approaches ranging from the fundamental to the operational are necessary.

This UE is divided into two parts. 

The first is designed to consolidate the skills acquired in secondary school that are essential for higher studies in the sciences: understanding proportionality and linearity, calculating with powers, manipulating fractions and solving simple equations. 

The second part will be devoted to the study of functions of one real variable: the emphasis will be on the usual functions, the graphical representation of functions, and the mathematical notion of derivative (or instantaneous rate of increase). 

Most of the concepts covered will be illustrated with concrete examples from biology.

It is important to note that these themes are supported by a particularly active scientific community in Montpellier.

This teaching unit is designed to provide a general context for understanding the Earth sciences and biology, while taking into account the fields of the Humanities and Social Sciences. Today's Earth is not detached from its past. To understand the impacts of environmental and climatic transformations on planet Earth, a diachronic (long time, change over time) and synchronic (spatial variations) approach is required.

Accordingly, this EU presents the history of the Earth through geological time. It discusses the structure, composition and processes of the Earth. Issues, concerns and problems related to natural hazards are also included. The lessons will also provide students with the necessary grounding to understand the societal issues surrounding climate and environmental questions. The spin-offs of this course are essential for the well-being of tomorrow's society, enabling us to train young citizens or future workers capable of analyzing, criticizing and thinking about past, present and future environmental and climate issues, and of participating in decision-making in societal debates on environmental risks. This course has therefore been designed by teacher-researchers from different scientific fields (Earth and Water Sciences, Ecology, Philosophy, Political Science), demonstrating that approaches ranging from the fundamental to the operational are necessary.
