The subject "Biology of children" deals with a comprehensive understanding of the biological aspects of child development, including the prenatal period to adolescence. The syllabus covers a wide range of topics, including hormonal regulation before and during pregnancy, the birth process and the assessment of newborn health using the Apgar score. The course emphasizes prenatal development, examining embryogenesis and fetal development, and emphasizes the critical role of nutrition before and during pregnancy. You will learn how maternal nutrition affects the cognitive function and overall development of children at different stages, from toddlers to teenagers. The subject focuses significantly on psychomotor development with an emphasis on diagnosis and stimulation strategies. The course expands its scope to psychosocial and personality development, uses diagnostic tools to understand and evaluate these aspects of child growth. The intricacies of nervous system development are explained in detail, including neurophysiology related to motor development. The module on the endocrine and immune system deals with the key topics of vaccination, the development of the respiratory system and the maturation of the cardiovascular system. Attention is also paid to the developmental pathways of the excretory and digestive system. Neonatal reflexes, which are key to understanding early neurological development, are explored. The course includes an interactive component in which students present their projects and promote a practical understanding of the topics discussed. By combining theoretical knowledge with practical applications, the course aims to equip students with a holistic understanding of the biological processes that govern child development, from conception to adolescence.

Primárním cílem kurzu "Biologie dětí" je poskytnout studentům komplexní pochopení biologických procesů, kterými se řídí vývoj dětí od prenatálního období až po dospívání. Prostřednictvím zkoumání hormonální regulace během těhotenství, porodu a zdraví novorozence, stejně jako zkoumání prenatálního vývoje a nutričních vlivů, si kurz klade za cíl vybavit studenty hlubokými znalostmi o biologických základech, které utvářejí růst a pohodu dítěte. děti. Dále je cílem podporovat hluboké porozumění složitým souvislostem mezi výživou, kognitivními funkcemi a celkovým rozvojem u batolat, předškoláků, školáků a dospívajících. Předmět se snaží objasnit složitosti psychomotorického vývoje, nabízí vhled do diagnostických a stimulačních strategií. Cílem kurzu je poskytnout studentům podrobné porozumění psychosociálnímu a osobnostnímu vývoji dětí s využitím diagnostických nástrojů pro hodnocení. Kromě toho se cíl rozšiřuje na zkoumání vývoje klíčových fyziologických systémů, včetně nervového, endokrinního, imunitního, respiračního, kardiovaskulárního, vylučovacího a trávicího systému. Ponořením se do neurofyziologie motorického vývoje a novorozeneckých reflexů si předmět klade za cíl prohloubit znalosti studentů o základních biologických mechanismech řídících motorické dovednosti a raný neurologický vývoj. Prezentace studentských projektů dodává praktický rozměr a podporuje praktickou aplikaci teoretických konceptů. Konečným cílem je poskytnout studentům holistický a multidisciplinární pohled na biologii dětí, což jim umožní porozumět, analyzovat a přispět k optimálnímu vývoji a blahu dětí v různých fázích života.
V neposlední řadě je cílem tohoto kurzu podpořit studenty v orientaci ve vědecké literatuře a kritickém myšlení.

The primary objective of the "Biology of Children" course is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the biological processes governing the development of children from prenatal stages through adolescence. Through the exploration of hormonal regulation during pregnancy, childbirth, and newborn health, as well as the examination of prenatal development and nutritional influences, the course aims to equip students with a profound knowledge of the biological foundations that shape the growth and well-being of children.
Furthermore, the goal includes fostering an in-depth comprehension of the intricate connections between nutrition, cognitive functions, and overall development in toddlers, preschoolers, schoolchildren, and adolescents. The subject seeks to elucidate the complexities of psychomotor development, offering insights into diagnostics and stimulation strategies.
The course strives to provide students with a nuanced understanding of the psychosocial and personality development of children, employing diagnostic tools for assessment. Additionally, the goal extends to exploring the development of crucial physiological systems, including the nervous, endocrine, immune, respiratory, cardiovascular, excretory, and digestive systems.
By delving into the neurophysiology of motor development and neonatal reflexes, the subject aims to enhance students' knowledge of the underlying biological mechanisms governing motor skills and early neurological development. The presentation of student projects adds a practical dimension, encouraging hands-on application of theoretical concepts.
Ultimately, the goal is to empower students with a holistic and multidisciplinary perspective on the biology of children, enabling them to comprehend, analyze, and contribute to the optimal development and well-being of children across various stages of life.
Last but not least, the aim of this course is to support students in orientation in scientific literature and critical thinking.
