Objective Objectives/Desired Results:

The course is essential for understanding the underlying mechanisms of various diseases.
Knowledge of Pathological Physiology is essential for understanding clinical manifestations and is a connecting link between basic sciences and pathological conditions.
Pathological Physiology refers to the consequences of disturbances in the normal functioning of the human body.
The course material aims to introduce undergraduate students to the Pathology of Diseases.
The study of the pathophysiology of diseases also allows the student to understand the underlying mechanisms of diseases as well as their clinical manifestations, with the ultimate goal of applying the appropriate treatment.
The final goal of the course is for the student to understand the disorders of the various systems and how they lead to the appearance of the various symptoms and clinical signs of specific diseases.
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to:
Searches, analyzes and synthesizes data and information, using the necessary technologies
Adapts to new situations
To perform autonomous and group work
To undertake work in an international and interdisciplinary environment
