3RD SEMESTER

Description, presentation and summary data, measures of central location and dispersion, populations and samples, normal distribution, hypothesis testing, parametric tests of one sample, parametric tests of two samples, analysis of variance, association between two continuous variables, association of qualitative variables, non parametric tests, diagnostic testing, survival analysis.

Communication in clinical practice, history taking, adherence to guidelines, clinical cases, breaking bad news: The Spikes protocol, communication with children, applied communication skills, difficult patients, communication in healthcare teams, presentation of cases.

During the lectures: Knowledge of morphology and anatomical relations of organs and their systems. During the lectures: Study of terminology, origin, course, branching and distribution of vessels and nerves of the human body. During practical classes: Identification of the vessels, nerves, muscles and organs on the body.

Students after completing the courses would be able to know and recognize the organs of the body, their position in the systems, their function and the common pathological conditions. Also they will recognize with Electron Microscopy the ultrastructure of the organs in relation with their function and pathology.

The aim of this course is the training in nucleic acid biochemistry and particularly on the biochemical mechanisms by which the genetic information is replicated and expressed. Also we focus on the teaching of the biochemical and molecular basis of the immune system, sensory organs, and certain other tissues as well as the teaching of the biochemical basis of the respective diseases.

Knowledge of the physiological mechanisms and regulation of circulatory, urinary and respiratory system of the human body.
