The programme introduces students to the main causes of human pathology and the modern diagnostic methods that aim to identify and prevent them and monitor the therapy applied to the clinical condition diagnosed. From this basic knowledge, the programme then focuses on specific aspects:

  • diagnostics: students learn the most common analysis techniques based on biospecific reagents, methods of microbiological diagnosis of infectious diseases, virology and parasitology diagnostics, methodical approaches to analyse Mendelian and complex genetic traits and the advanced molecular diagnostic techniques applied to oncology, forensic methods;
  • nutrition: students acquire the physiological basics of nutritional science and learn the correlations between unhealthy eating habits and different pathologies;
  • they also learn the cell and molecular basics of nutrient-related diseases;
  • pharmacology: students learn the processes and essential principles that regulate drug development and the methods used to carry out regulated clinical trials;
  • biology laboratory management: students further develop their knowledge in relation to quality control and certification in biology laboratories.

This programme is available in Italian.
