THEORETICAL-PRACTICAL CONTENTS

1.Physiological and pathological aging diseases associated with brain aging and Neurodegeneration.

2.Genetic bases of aging and longevity. Main triggering causes of aging, degeneration and cell death.

3. Apoptosis and necrosis in neurodegenerative diseases.

4. Nitric oxide and oxidative stress in aging.

5. Role of antioxidant systems in aging.

6. Cell therapy in neurodegenerative diseases.

7. Clinical aspects.

8. Proteomics.

9.Animal models used during aging.

This subject is designed to provide advanced and practical training in the molecular processes and mechanisms of aging and neurodegenerative diseases, as well as to learn about potential cellular and pharmacological therapies for their treatment. The subject pursues all of this  through the acquisition of the indicated competences through presentations by the teaching staff and invited researchers, practices and seminars.

Students with special educational needs should contact the Student Attention Service (Servicio de Atención y Ayudas al Estudiante) in order to receive the appropriate academic support

EXTRAORDINARY CALL: In the case of not passing any of the evaluated parts in the Ordinary II call (Considering passed the parts with: Oral Exam with a score of 5 points out of 10 and attendance at 70% of Theoretical and Practical classes), the qualifications of the parts passed and an additional evaluation test will be carried out on the contents acquired in the expositive classes in a large group.

RESOURCES: In the case of an online evaluation, the GSUITE resources and those available on the virtual teaching platform of the University of Jaén will be used.

Face-to-face/online format : The maximum number of face-to-face sessions will be applied both in Theoretical sessions and in Practices, implementing the online format in the minimum number of sessions required to achieve the expected competences and ECTS.  The exact number of possible face-to-face sessions will be established once the effective capacity of the laboratories by the Occupational Risk Prevention Service and the number of students enrolled.

Methodology: For the 2 laboratory sessions that have to be taught online, a synchronous format will be used and/or asynchronous using the tools provided by the Virtual Teaching and Computer Services of the UJA. The evaluation will follow the criteria and methods described in the face-to-face scenario or using online resources at if necessary.Regarding the technical resources used, those provided by the University of Jaén may be used.
