For this purpose, a theoretical class in the framework of an introductory genetics course was analyzed and, in addition, a semi-structured interview was conducted with the teacher in charge. In this way, it was possible to identify a series of elements that vary between its classic biomedical approach and a proposal that incorporates a gender and rights perspective. We argue, in turn, that epistemological reflection on this scientific model can contribute to move away from biological determinism in its teaching. El trabajo de investigación que presentamos trata de dar respuesta a la pregunta de cuáles son las concepciones respecto a la intersexualidad y al sexo biológico que se transmiten en la enseñanza universitaria, al tratar la determinación del sexo como contenido curricular de la Biología. Para esto, se analizó una clase teórica en el marco de un curso introductorio de genética y, además, se realizó una entrevista semiestructurada al docente a cargo. De esta manera, fue posible identificar una serie de elementos que varían entre su abordaje biomédico clásico y una propuesta que incorpore una perspectiva de género y derechos. Sostenemos, a su vez, que la reflexión epistemológica en torno a este modelo científico puede contribuir a alejarse del determinismo biológico en su enseñanza. ark:/s23449225/39ur2ismr Asociación de Docentes de Ciencias Biológicas de la Argentina 2021-07-01 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo evluado por pares application/pdf text/html https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30227 10.59524/2344-9225.v24.n2.30227 Journal of Biology Education; Vol. 24 No. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 9-21 Revista de Educación en Biología; Vol. 24 Núm. 2 (2021): Revista de Educación en Biología; 9-21 2344-9225 0329-5192 10.59524/2344.9225.v24.n2 spa https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30227/35083 https://revistas.unc.edu.ar/index.php/revistaadbia/article/view/30227/35099 Derechos de autor 2021 Lucia Regina Tagliaferro, Diego Kafer, Melisa Calero, Dra.
