Description
The objective of this course is the presentation of different multiplication methods (cloning) of embryos and gametes, taking as an experimental model different mammalian species.
However, it considers the possible reproductive and therapeutic applications that the different cloning methodologies may derive in the human species. It introduces two main multiplication methodologies that may imply or not genome reprograming.

Academic information
Competencies
- Identify the specific stages of cell multiplication and their importance in early embryonic development.
- Describe the fundamentals and implications of different technologies for embryo multiplication, somatic cloning and gamete multiplication.
- Explain the nuclear transplantation procedure and its application in cloning of fully or partially differentiated cells.
- Critically analyze the techniques and protocols used for the multiplication of gametes and embryos in the laboratory as well as scientific or social documents in the field of cloning.
- Evaluate the impact of gamete and embryo multiplication interventions on the success rates of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and other assisted reproduction treatments.

Cancellation and Refund Policy
Once the course has started, enrollment cancellation will not be possible, and no refunds will be issued under any circumstances.
Theoretical-practical courses are designed as an indivisible training unit; therefore, no refunds will be granted once the course has begun, even if the practical component has not yet started.
Course Completion
A course will only be considered successfully completed when the student has fully completed the entire program. If the course includes a practical component, it will not be deemed completed unless that component has been fully carried out.
No certificate of completion or attendance will be issued if the student has not completed all the activities included in the course program. Under no circumstances will certificates be issued for partial completion of either the theoretical or practical parts of the course.
