Learning objectives
The main purpose of the course is to provide the student with the basic Knowledge of the main mechanisms of molecular and cellular injury and the basic reactions of cells and tissues to the abnormal stimuli that underlie diseases, knowledge required for the comprehension of the bio-medical methodologies utilized in tumor biology and diagnosis, acquisition of the general knowledge of the fundamental biological mechanisms regulating the immune system functions, knowledge of the immune laboratory techniques, knowledge of the mechanisms responsible for the main alterations of the homeostatic systems, functional consequences on various organs and systems, describe the compensation mechanisms that are activated as a result of these changes and how they may themselves be the pathophysiological mechanisms of disease. The course shall introduce evidences that pathology represents the basis for most of the laboratory test used for the diagnosis of human diseases.
MODULO FISIOPATOLOGIA GENERALE Aim of the course is to describe the pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for the main alterations of the homeostatic systems, functional consequences on various organs and systems, describe the compensation mechanisms that are activated as a result of these changes and how they may themselves be the pathophysiological mechanisms of disease. The course shall introduce evidences that pathophysiology represents the basis for most of the laboratory test used for the diagnosis of human diseases.
MODULO IMMUNOPATOLOGIA.
The fundamental objective of the course of immunology is the acquisition of the conceptual and scientific instruments for the understanding the function of the immune system both in healthy and disease state. In particular the objectives are:
1. Acquisition of the knowledge of the fundamental biological mechanisms regulating the functions of the immune system in the protection against diseases;
2. Acquisition of the knowledge of pathologic mechanisms of the immune system with particular emphasis on hypersensibility, autoimmunity and immunodeficiency ;
3. In-depth analysis of the immunology-associated techiques.
MODULO PATOGENESI DEI TUMORI
The main purpose of the course is to provide the student with the basic knowledge required for the comprehension of the bio-medical methodologies utilized in tumor biology and diagnosis.
MODULO PATOLOGIA GENERALE
Knowledge of the main mechanisms of molecular and cellular injury and the basic reactions of cecells and tissues to the abnormal stimuli that underlie diseases
Prerequisites and basic notions
There are no prerequisites
Bibliography
Learning assessment procedures
A test may be given in the form of oral, written, open-ended or multiple-choice, practical exercise or preparation of a paper. This test shall cover all topics included/executed within the programs of the component modules of the teaching.
Evaluation criteria
The assessment elements that contribute to the awarding of the grade are:
knowledge and the ability to understand,
the ability to apply knowledge,
autonomy of judgment, that is, the ability to make critical sense and formulate judgments,
the ability to communicate.
In evaluating the individual tests and awarding the grade, the teaching teachers refer to the following scale for assessing learning.
Lower than 18 : Fragmentary and superficial knowledge of content, errors in applying concepts, poor exposition
18 - 20 : Sufficient but general content knowledge, simple exposition, uncertainties in applying theoretical concepts
21 - 23 : Appropriate but not thorough content knowledge, ability to apply theoretical concepts, ability to present content in a simple way
24 - 25 : Appropriate and extensive content knowledge, fair ability to apply knowledge, ability to present content in an articulate manner.
26 - 27 : Content knowledge accurate and complete, good ability to apply knowledge, ability to analyze, clear and correct exposition
28 - 29 : Broad, complete and thorough knowledge of content, good application of content, good ability to analyze and synthesize, confident and correct exposition,
30 or 30 cum laude : Very broad, complete and in-depth content knowledge, well-established ability to apply content, excellent ability to analyze, synthesize and make interdisciplinary connections, mastery of exposition.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The exam includes an oral interview in order to ascertain the actual achievement of the learning objectives. The evaluation is given in thirtieths. The final result includes the arithmetic mean of the 4 modules that make up the course of study.
