General Veterinary Pathology, Veterinary Microbiology and Immunology
A.Y. 2020/2021
Learning objectives
Veterinary microbiology deals with the study and characerization of potentially pathogenic microorganisms (non conventional agents, viruses, bacteria, etc). Immunology deals with basic structures and functions of innate and acquired immunity against microorganisms in different conditions (e.g. young, adult, old, stressed animal) and with methods to potentiate (e.g. vaccinations) and diagnose them (immunodiagnostics).
General pathology deals with the study of pathogenic mechanisms responsible of the pathologic changes detectable in domestic and wild animals. These changes include cell and tissue damage (general pathology), functional changews of organs (pathophysiology) or diseases associated with disturbances of the immune system (immunopathology)
The course include lectures, seminars and practicals. In turn these latter include practical sessions focused on microbiology (bacterial cultures etc), immunology, hematology, run either in the diagnostic lab of the department or in the microscope room.

Expected learning outcomes
Knowledge and understandings: students must demonstrate to know the structure and features of microorganisms affecting animals, the functions of the immune system and the etiopathogenesis of the main pathological and pathophysiological changes
Applying knowledge and understanding: students must demonstrate to establish logical lings between the different topics and to correlate to each other the information provided by the different modules of the course
Making judgements: students must demonstrate problem solving abilities in a critical manner
Communication: students must be able to properly communicate, using appropriate terminology
Learning skills: students must demonstrate to be able to autonomously improve their own knowledge of new problems related to the different modules of the course.
