| MICROBIOLOGY AND IMMUNOLOGY
(obiettivi)
AIM OF TEACHING MODULE:
The course provides the essential knowledge of the major concepts, principles and applications of microbiology. Trough this course you will learn about what microorganisms are, how they function, and how their related pathogenetic mechanism work. Areas covered are: Microbiology, Bacteriology and Virology. These objectives will be achieved through lectures, seminars and educational interactive activities designed to facilitate learning, and to improve the ability to address and resolve the main questions of Medical Microbiology. Some peculiar arguments and topics will be presented and studied in depth.
