Dermatology
A.A. 2020/2021
Obiettivi formativi
The Dermatology course will introduce students to dermatology and patients with skin disease. It will enable students to diagnose common skin conditions and understand the principles of management of these patients. The course will cover the pathogenesis of the main skin conditions and the main therapies to use including both topical preparations and systemic drugs, such as immunomodulating agents, immunosuppressants and biologics.
The course is designed in 3 blocks. The first block will focus on the physiology, biology, biochemistry, functions of the skin and mechanisms that trigger skin pathologies. The second block will address the most common dermatological pathologies that a physician will face in his practice. The third block will skill students on the clinics by visiting both hospitalized patients suffering from more severe and also life-threatening conditions and ambulatories where patients generally complain of less serious skin diseases.

Prerequisiti
To take the Dermatology exam, students must have already passed all the exams of the first and second year (Fundamentals of Basic Sciences, Cells, Molecules and Genes 1 and 2, Human Body, Functions and Mechanisms of Diseases).
Metodi didattici
Lectures and seminars. Practical activities will be used, through simulation or in the ward, to consolidate technical and soft knowledge and skills developed during frontal lectures.
Materiale di riferimento
The course will provide an e-book containing the full content of the lessons.
Modalità di verifica dell’apprendimento e criteri di valutazione
Students' evaluation will be assessed through an oral session in which the students will be challenged to apply the concepts acquired during the course on physiological or clinical problems.
The exam is deemed to be passed successfully if the final grade is equal to or higher than 18/30. In the event of a full grade (30/30) honors (lode) may be granted with the consent of all the professors.
Registration to the exam through SIFA is mandatory.
