General Concept of Musculoskeletal System Biomechanics and Locomotion
Lectures
- Most presentations are already there, but might be updated.
- CHECK CAREFULLY the dates of the lectures, which may not chronologically follow the same order as the modules.
- The location of CHUV auditoriums can be found here. More information may come later regarding the lectures given by MDs at CHUV.
Student project
- Each student should work on a project.
- Students can work in groups of two.
- The project is a review of a specific subject in relation with the course.
- This review should start with a clear clinical problem.
- The core of the work is to review the engineering methods developed to answer the clinical problem.
- This review should also include the economic and industrial aspects. According to the subject, legal, ethical, sociologic, or demographic comments could be included.
- The project should finally present and discuss the future of the engineering solutions.
- The subject title and summary (3-4 sentences) should be given and approved before November (project validation date). Each group presents its project in 5 min and 2-3 slides.
- The review will be presented orally at the end of the semester, consisting of a 10-minute (15 for groups of 2) presentation followed by a 5-minute Q&A session.
- The grade is based on the oral presentation.
- This work represents about one week of full-time work per student.

6. Surgery
Two persons are allowed to attend simultaneously a surgery.
You have to wait in front of the cloakroom (men/women) of the operating rooms, located in the 4th floor of the orthopaedic hospital. Someone will take you from there.
The precise time for the surgery and appontement might be defined 1-2 day before the surgery.
The orthopaedic hospital entrance is here. Once inside, go left, towards to older building, take the stairs, up to 4th floor. You should find there (south) the cloakroom for women (room 1467) and men (room 1453.1).
