The general purpose of the course is to introduce students to the role of bacteria in the pathogenesis of infections.Furthermore, the course seeks to provide students with the basics for the focused treatment of bacteria using antimicrobial drugs and how they spread.
Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to use the acquired knowledge in order to:
- to pursue the correct approach to the infection depending on its epidemiology
- to design appropriate laboratory tests
- to make use of the correct anti-microbial treatment
- to organize measures to avoid the spread of bacteria
