Objectives

Human Anatomy
At the end of the course the student must have acquired a three-dimensional representation of the human body, and in its surface characteristics, and in its internal organization. The approach will be mainly of a systematic type, that is, based on the study of the individual systems and systems into which the human body can be divided and therefore of the organs and viscera that make up said systems and apparatuses. At the same time, the student will be provided with the basic notions for a topographical study of Human Anatomy, taking into account the large regions of the body in order to better evaluate the relationships between organs, viscera and connective devices in each territory. Organs and viscera will be considered in their macroscopic and microscopic structural characteristics as they appear after dissection of the corpse, after radiological examination and after observation of sections processed for optical microscopy. When necessary, ultrastructural aspects will also be taken into consideration. The acquisitions will finally be integrated with elements of functional anatomy and clinical anatomy to avoid a too sectorial view of the subject.
Applied Biology
To educate "critical method" and to the discussion through the description of experiments; acquisition of knowledge of the structures and principles for the unity of the different biological units in their energy and informational logic
Histology
Main objectives to be reached in the Histology module:
Knowledge the main structural and ultrastructural cells and tissues features related to their specific embryological derivation, using the specific language.

Contents

Human Anatomy
Starting from the INTRODUCTION TO SPLANCNOLOGY, the module deals with the study of the apparatuses and systems that make up the human body, with attention to the localization and relationships that the organs that make it take between them and with the surrounding structures hinting their functions.
Applied Biology
provides:
The chemistry of life - The organization of cells - The biological membranes - Cell signaling - The energetic processes of the cell-Structure of chromosomes and processes of mitosis and meiosis-Structure and duplication of DNA-L Gene expression-Regulation of gene expression of the prokaryotic - Virus – Prokaryotes
Histology
Course contents provide the integrated knowledge of structural and ultrastructural morphology of different human tissues.

Teaching Methods

Frontal lessons stimulating interactivity through classroom discussion of the topics addressed.

Evaluation methods

Verification of learning:

The evaluation of the student includes an oral exam, which will serve to demonstrate the knowledge of the program carried out, the logic followed by the student in the resolution of the questions asked and the adequacy of the language, at the end a vote will be attributed expressed in thirtieths.
The minimum threshold with which the evaluation is passed is 18/30.
Oral exam grade expressed out of thirty
18-20: just enough knowledge and understanding of the topics
21-23: sufficient knowledge and understanding of topics
24-26: fair knowledge of the topics
27-29 : good knowledge and presentation of the topics
30: excellent knowledge and presentation of the topics
30 and prize: excellent knowledge of the topics and fluent presentation skills
