AIMS AND CONTENT
LEARNING OUTCOMES
To know and to practice the most common methods used in biomedical research laboratories involved in pre-clinical and clinical projects. The student will be acquanted in analytical practices, biological dosages and in the production of experimental data
AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES
The student will learn experimental practices mainly associated to the three scientific areas of the course: physiology, biochemistry and applied biology. In detail, the student will learn the biomedical techniques in use in the laboratory affiliated to the course chosen by the student. In particular: techniques used in genetic counseling, cellular and molecular biology techniques commonly used to investigate the molecular basis of diseases, tachniques commonly used for the biochemical investigation of metabolic diseases, microscopy techniques, analysis of tissue sections and biological samplesThe student will learn experimental practices mainly associated to the three scientific areas of the course: physiology, biochemistry and applied biology.
