This course will provide insight in how lipids are involved in the pathology of chronic diseases such as cadiovascular disease, cardiorenal disease, cancer, liver disease and brain diseases such as Alzheimer's and multiple sclerosis. Moreover, state of the art technologies to study lipid structure and frunction, and the possible use of lipids based nano- and micro-materials in therapeutic applications will be discussed.

|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | The evaluation consists of multiple parts. For all parts of the evaluation, at least a score of 8/20 must be obtained in order to pass for the course. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | A student who achieves a score lower than 8/20 on one (or more) parts of the evaluation will receive F fail as final result. This final result is not tolerable. A student who scores at least 8/20 for all parts of the evaluation receives as score a weighted average of the different grades. This final mark is tolerable. Eg. 8/20 + 16/20 = 12/20 (passed). Students who are unjustified absent at the journal clubs or tutor sessions, receive as final grade for the course a N unjustified absent and have to attend the journal club in the next academic year to receive their final grade. The student needs to re enroll in the course in the next academic year. In this case, partial grades can be transferred to the next academic year.

Second examination period
| Evaluation second examination opportunity different from first examination opprt | |
|
| Explanation (English) | A student who does not pass the tests provided after the lectures can do
a re-exam for all tests during the resit period. A student who does not
pass the assignment will get an alternative assignment that needs to be
completed in the resit period. |
