Learning objectives
To offer the basic knowledge of human biology in an evolutionary perspective, underlying the molecular and cellular processes shared by all living organisms. To encourage students to critically evaluate experimental data by illustrating prime experiments of the past and contemporary biology. To describe the following processes: duplication, transmission, expression of the hereditary information; how changes arise To describe the hierarchy of master genes involved in tooth development and their interactions. To offer an updated information about the recombinant DNA technology and its applications to dentistry To teach the genetic bases of inherited diseases and how to interpret their modes of transmission To illustrate in particular various genetic conditions affecting dental health. At the end of the course, students must demonstrate to have gotten acquainted with basic knowledge of cellular functions, cell reproduction, cell-cell interactions, organism-to –organism interactions and organisms-to-environment interactions. They must also demonstrate to know how genetic traits are transmitted (mendelian and post-mendelian genetics, population genetics). They should be able to recognize inheritance patterns of genetic disorders, in particular those involving teeth development and structure. All these notions are a pre-requisite for further in depth studies , which will be undertaken by the students in subsequent courses.

Didactic methods
Attendance to lessons is mandatory. Classes will consist of theorical lessons covering the whole exam program. Oral explanations will be coadiuvated by PowerPoint presentations and videos, which will be made available to students through a dedicated Department website. The flipped classroom method and the Team-Based Learning method will also be used. Additional didactic supports (multiple choice quizzes for self-assessment, journal articles, reviews, etc.) may be suggested during the course and will be made available to students for download. During the whole Academic Year, students may request personal reception to the teachers, by e mail.
Learning assessment procedures
The exam consists of overcoming a written test of about 25-30 multiple choice quizzes spanning the entire program, followed by a short interview to discuss the quiz answers.
Evaluation criteria
To pass the test, students shall demonstrate to possess the comprehension and the knowledge of teaching topics, skills of reasoning and personal re-elaboration of notions. The ability to present their arguments accurately and synthetically, using the adequate scientific language can also be assessed.
The Biology test is considered passed if the evaluation is at least 18/30.

I corsi elettivi (attività a scelta dello studente - TAF. D)
non rientrano nel computo del debito didattico.
La Commissione Didattica organizza l'offerta di attività didattiche opzionali realizzabili con lezioni frontali, seminari, tirocini, esercitazioni e internati pratici, videoconferenze, conferenze, corsi e convegni, fra i quali lo studente esercita la propria personale opèzione, fino al conseguimento dei crediti
previsti dal piano didattico.
Agli studenti che partecipano ai programmi di internazionalizzazione della didattica e della ricerca, preventivamente autorizzati, vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per i Corsi Elettivi.

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.

Passaggio/trasferimento da altro corso di studio
A.A. 2024/2025
Informazioni generali relative a passaggio di corso al seguente link:
Informazioni relative l’ammissione ad anni successivi al primo del CdS al seguente link:
Fermo restando l’indefettibile numero di posti disponibili e il numero di CFU riconoscibili il Collegio Didattico o organo delegato, al fine di determinare una graduatoria di merito degli ammissibili ad anni successivi al primo, può deliberare la somministrazione di una prova integrativa o altri criteri di valutazione, i cui termini e modalità saranno resi noti contestualmente alla pubblicazione dell’ apposito bando concorso.
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 |
