It is based on a series of lectures grouped on thematic sections and focusing on pathogenic mechanisms and experimental approaches. The course also includes two journal club sessions held by the students on selected scientific articles proposed by the Faculty, aimed at developing the student's ability to critical reading, presentation, and discussion of the scientific data.
Expected learning outcomes
Students will acquire an integrated comprehension of the pathogenic basis of human pathology and on the correlation of pathogenic mechanisms and clinical manifestations. They will also acquire information on potentials and limitations of experimental models available.
