The training activities are divided into two sections: theory sessions and seminar sessions, each of them with their specific methodology.

NOTE ON IRREGULAR USE OF AI TOOLS

The commission of any irregularity in an assessment act (academic fraud, plagiarism or improper use of AI, unless such use is expressly authorized in the teaching guide), which may lead to a significant variation in the grade, means that this act will be graded with a 0. In the event that the teaching guide provides that in order to pass the subject it is an essential requirement to have obtained a minimum grade in this assessment act or that several irregularities occur in the assessment acts of the same subject, the final grade for this subject is 0. Apart from this, a disciplinary process may be initiated against the student who incurs any of these irregularities.

CONTINUOUS ASSESSMENT

Theory

The total weight of the evaluation of the theoretical part will be 80% of the total grade of the subject. The main evaluation of this part of the subject will have the format of continuous evaluation with two partial tests. The weighted weight of the first partial is 60%; The weighted weight of the second partial is 40%. The partial exams must be passed with a minimum of 5.0 points out of 10. In case less than 5.0 has been obtained, the suspended partial (s) can be recovered in the recovery exam.

The evaluation of the theory can be recovered as indicated at the end of this section.

Scientific seminars

Students will work in small groups outside school hours with the aim of preparing two seminars focused on the relationship between molecular processes addressed in the subject and the development of cellular dysfunctions that lead to diseases. The content must be based on rigorous and contrasted scientific information and must be presented in slide format. Each group will present its work on the established dates, in a simulated context of a scientific congress. This environment will promote peer debate and the formulation of questions by the audience, with the aim of promoting critical thinking and the consolidation of the knowledge presented. The evaluation of the activity will be carried out through a rubric previously agreed with the students. A peer evaluation is contemplated, in which the students themselves will evaluate the presentations of their classmates. This peer evaluation will represent 30% of the final grade of the seminar activity.

In this activity, the use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies is authorized, provided that they are used as a support tool in tasks such as searching for information, linguistic correction or translating texts. In no case, however, can AI replace the reflection, critical analysis or synthesis capacity required for this activity. Students will have to clearly and explicitly identify which parts of the work have been developed with the support of AI tools, specify which ones have been used and include a brief critical reflection on how these tools have contributed to the process and the result. The lack of transparency in the use of AI will be considered a lack of academic honesty and may lead to penalties in the qualification of the activity, or more serious sanctions in the event of a serious infraction.

Global assessment

The subject will be passed when the sum of the different parts, weighted by their specific weight in the subject, equals or exceeds 5.0 out of 10 points. Each of the partials must pass with a minimum of 5.0 points out of 10 to be able to add the seminar grade to the overall grade.

To participate in the theory recovery, according to UAB regulations, students must have been previously evaluated in a set of activities whose weight equals to a minimum of two thirds of the total grade of the subject or module. Therefore, students will obtain the \"Non-Valuable\" qualification when the evaluation activities carried out have a weighting of less than 67% in the final grade.

Students who have had to recover the subject in the recovery test will not be able to opt for the maximum grade of honor enrollment, but may opt for a maximum of excellent.

Students who cannot attend an individual assessment test for justified cause (such as illness, death of a first-degree relative or accident ... etc) and provide the corresponding official documentation to the course coordinator will have the right to take a recovery test, which could be oral.

EXAMINATION-BASED ASSESSMENT

The single assessment examination consists of a written examination with development questions and/or short questions related to the eight theory topics. The seminar activity will be evaluated based on two exercises (video) that must be delivered through the CV.

Single assessment consists of a single examination in which the contents of the entire theory programme (the eight topics) will be assessed. The test will consist of development questions and/or short questions. The mark obtained in this synthesis test will represent 80% of the final grade of the subject. The single assessment examination will coincide with the same date set in the calendar for the second partial of continuous assessment and the same recovery system will be applied as for continuous assessment.

The evaluation of seminar activities (not compulsory attendance for students who adhere to the single assessment format) will follow the same process as continuous assessment: students will submit two exercises (audiovisual files) through the virtual campus, on the date on which the people involved will be informed at the beginning of the course. The grade obtained will represent 20% of the final grade of the subject.

The subject will be passed when the exam grade exceeds 5.0 out of 10 points. This note will also be the minimum so that the seminar grade can be considered.
