The aim of studying and bibliography

The main aim of study: To familiarize students with the basic techniques used in the laboratories involved in the diagnosis of pathology at the molecular level. We will show various methods of detection and identification of pathogenic organisms. Students become familiar with the methods of molecular diagnostics in infectious, cancer and hereditary diseases.

The general information about the module: The module is implemented in the second semester and includes 30 hours of lectures and 30 hours laboratory. The module ends with an exam
