General pathology and immunology (2019/2020)
The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
The basic aim of the course of General Pathology and Immunology are: (i) to acquire the conceptual and scientific tools to explain the causes and mechanisms of human disease and the role of the immune system; (ii) to examine molecular mechanisms responsible for cell and tissue damage and implicated in the host response to cell damage and in the repair of tissue injury. In addition, the course addresses pathophysiological mechanisms at the basis of alterations of the host main homeostatic systems, compensation responses induced by these alterations and their potential significance as mechanisms of diseases. Moreover, tumor eathiology, molecular mechanisms responsible of neoplastic transformation, development of primary tumors and metastasis, and the systemic consequences of tumor-related pathologies (paraneoplastic syndromes, chacexia) will be explored. Particular attention will be devoted to the acquisition of scientific terms used in pathology.

Propedeuticità degli esami di profitto
A.A. 2024/2025
Un esame si definisce propedeutico se deve necessariamente essere superato prima di un altro esame.
LO STUDENTE È TENUTO A RISPETTARE LE PROPEDEUTICITÀ DEGLI ESAMI DI PROFITTO, PENA L’ANNULLAMENTO DEGLI ESAMI SUPERATI.

Riconoscimento carriera pregressa
A.A. 2024/2025
Per valutazione della carriera pregressa, si intende il riconoscimento dei Crediti Formativi Universitari (CFU) e degli esami sostenuti presso un altro corso di laurea dell’Università di Verona o di altro ateneo o a seguito del conseguimento di una precedente laurea. La valutazione della carriera pregressa avviene formalmente solo in seguito all'immatricolazione o al trasferimento, oppure dopo l’avvenuto passaggio interno da un corso ad un altro dell’Ateneo di Verona Pertanto non sono previste valutazioni preventive della carriera pregressa. Informazioni generali sono presenti al seguente link: Informazioni relative al riconoscimento crediti acquisiti da una carriera pregressa sono presenti al seguente link: Criteri di valutazione per il riconoscimento della carriera pregressa del CdS. Ai fini del riconoscimento della carriera pregressa saranno presi in considerazione solo le attività didattiche completate e registrate entro la data di presentazione della domanda di valutazione. Non saranno considerati esami parzialmente superati. Possono essere riconosciuti attività formative nell’ambito dei crediti elettivi fino ad un massimo di 5 CFU. Non saranno riconosciuti esami superati nei corsi di laurea delle Professioni sanitarie, ad esclusione di esami ritenuti completamente equipollenti sulla base dei contenuti dei relativi programmi. Il Collegio Didattico o altro organo delegato valuterà e delibererà il riconoscimento della carriera pregressa analizzando, i programmi degli esami superati, i CFU assegnati, la congruità delle tipologie e dei contenuti delle attività formative con gli obiettivi formativi specifici delle attività previste dal CdLM a Ciclo Unico in Odontoiatria e Protesi Dentaria dell’Ateneo di Verona, incluse le attività pratiche. I CFU acquisiti a seguito della valutazione della carriera pregressa, possono consentire l’ammissione ad anni successivi al primo e quindi l’abbreviazione di carriera, a condizione che si realizzino i seguenti presupposti:
27 CFU per l’ammissione al secondo anno 85 CFU per l’ammissione al terzo anno 143 CFU per l’ammissione al quarto anno 203 CFU per l’ammissione al quinto anno 263 CFU per l’ammissione al sesto anno |

Sbarramenti
A.A. 2024/2025
E’ consentito il passaggio da un anno di corso al successivo, esclusivamente agli studenti che, al termine della sessione autunnale, abbiano superato gli esami previsti nel piano didattico per quell’anno di corso con un debito didattico massimo di 31 CFU.
Gli esami che rientrano nel debito didattico devono essere superati prima di sostenere gli esami di profitto del successivo anno di corso.
