The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning objectives
BIOLOGIA APPLICATA.
Train the student in the application of biological terminology in the description and discussion of fundamental experiments in biology; provide the student with the main information that allows the distinction between living beings; make the student learn the characteristics of the cell and of the main macromolecules that compose it. At the end of the teaching, the student will be able to understand the mechanisms that regulate life, cellular reproduction and the interactions between cells.
GENETICA MEDICA.
The Course will aim at giving the basics of human and medical genetics, in order to be able to understand the principles of transmission of inherited traits, as well as the causes of genetic diseases.
At the end of the course the student should be able to
- draw a human pedigree
- distinguish the various types of mendelian inheritance
- estimate the genetic recurrence risks of mendelian and complex disorders
- understand and interpret normal and abnormal human karyotypes.
MODULO METODI E TECNICHE DI MICROBIOLOGIA
Learning outcomes: the aim of the module is to provide students with the knowledge of the basic techniques applied in Microbiology and the theoretical principles on which they are based.
MODULO MICROBIOLOGIA
Basic concepts of the world of microorganisms. Major differences among bacteria, viruses, fungi, protozoa and their role in the infections diseases. Characteristics of the various microorganisms and their structures. as agents of infectious diseases. Provide students with theoretical knowledge of the causes, pathogenetic mechanisms, microbiological diagnosis and infection control, to use the contents of lessons in subsequent courses.
Prerequisites and basic notions
Basic knowledge of general biology acquired during secondary school education is required, including:
cell structure and function,
basic concepts of biological chemistry,
elementary principles of genetics.
No prior knowledge of microbiology or medical genetics is required.
Bibliography
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final assessment of the course consists of two separate examinations:
A written exam for the Medical Genetics and Applied Biology modules, aimed at verifying theoretical knowledge and the ability to apply fundamental concepts in genetics and biology.
An oral exam for the Microbiology and Microbiological Methods and Techniques module, aimed at assessing the understanding of microbiological principles, laboratory techniques, and their practical applications.
The final grade will be calculated as the weighted average of the grades obtained in the two exams, with weights established by the teaching committee.
