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.

In this course, we cover each stage of the life cycle of organisms (mainly metazoans and angiosperms) through a series of practical exercises covering: embryonic development (including organ development, cell differentiation and growth processes), acquisition of reproductive capacity (including stages associated with meiosis and gametogenesis), and fertilization. This series of practical exercises is combined with a series of tutorials on the transmission of genetic information.

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 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.

Evolution of life, climate and oceans
ECTS
4 credits
Component
Faculty of Science
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 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.

In this course, we cover each stage of the life cycle of organisms (mainly metazoans and angiosperms) through a series of practical exercises covering: embryonic development (including organ development, cell differentiation and growth processes), acquisition of reproductive capacity (including stages associated with meiosis and gametogenesis), and fertilization. This series of practical exercises is combined with a series of tutorials on the transmission of genetic information.

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.

Faculty of Science
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.
