Teaching methods
Tuition is done in the form of seminar. Students should read the literature of particular area of physiology and eventually prepare their own presentation of the topic. During the seminars, students present the topics and intensify their knowledge in discussion with the teacher.
Assessment methods
The course-unit credit is conditioned by full attendance and 60% control of preparedness in the seminars (control test at the beginning of seminar - 6 and more points).
