LAURA SELAN

At the end of the course the student must know morpho-functional and metabolic characteristics of the prokaryotic cell and eukaryotic, the fundamentals of the genetic code and of the regulation of gene expression, of the mechanisms of inheritance e the nature of gene mutation, aspects of genetic pathology and of development, of molecular and cell pathology and of environmental pathology; acquires knowledge of the fundamentals of neoplastic transformation and inflammation, of pathogenic microorganisms for humans, of relationships between host and pathogenic organisms; the main techniques of classical microbiology and the general principles of immunology.
At the end of the course the student must demonstrate that he has acquired the critical skills and tools necessary to understand the evolutionary approach to biological phenomena; must be able to distinguish the main genetic diseases; be able to distinguish genetic and developmental pathologies, molecular, cellular, environmental, neoplastic and inflammatory pathologies; be able to recognize the morphological, structural and genetic characteristics of microorganisms and their pathogenicity, to understand the mechanisms of action of the main antibacterial and antiviral drugs and be able to distinguish the prevention tools such as vaccines.

Aim of the course is to provide the student with the knowledge necessary to understand the mechanisms by which the causes of disease act on the human organism and the main consequences of such actions, in particular, the general etiology, cell damage, inflammation, the healing of tissues, the biology of the neoplastic cell as well as the pathophysiology of the main organs/apparatus.

As a result, the expected learning outcomes predict that the student will acquire the ability to describe many of the basic pathological processes, learn an adequate nomenclature, understand the meaning of pathological processes and their interactions. The student will also acquire the knowledge of the principles underlying the alteration of the physiology of the main organs/ apparatus.
