Learning objectives
The course aims to provide participants with a broad understanding of molecular microbiology and the molecular basis of diseases relevant to veterinary medicine and animal sciences. It will also provide students with information on the main inflammatory and immune reactions against pathogens, which will be described at the molecular level, and on the main molecular mechanisms associated with pathogens related to microbial pathogenicity.
Expected learning outcomes
Upon completion of the course, students will be able to gain knowledge in the molecular biology of microbes and how microbes can cause disease in organisms.
Students will demonstrate the ability to analyze and synthesize knowledge of molecular microbiology, as well as antibiotic resistance strategies and escape from the host's immune system
Students will deepen biostatistical analysis skills and modern digital technologies for information research, data analysis, and microbiological and health monitoring.
Students will acquire specialized skills in microbiology, immunology and molecular pathology, and in particular:
- The ability to use bioinformatics analysis systems through their application to the interpretation of the results obtained from genomic and proteomic analysis experiments.
- Knowledge of the basic pathogenetic mechanisms related to infectious diseases and immunopathology
- Transversal skills in Bioinformatics and data analysis.
