Thematik

Brief description of the topic: The introduction covers the subject and history of medical microbiology and its place in medicine. Morphology, physiology and genetics of microbes, as well as methods of disinfection and the theoretical aspects of antimicrobial therapy, are the subjects of the general microbiology lectures. The host-parasite interactions involved in the pathogenesis of various infections will be described, as well as the host defence mechanisms, the possibilities of immune prophylaxis, pathways of allergy, tolerance and autoimmunity. The first semester also includes systematic virology, which covers in detail infections of viral and prion etiologies.

The objective of the first semester is to provide students with solid knowledge and insight and to prepare them for later courses in systematic bacteriology, mycology, parasitology and clinical microbiology, as well as understanding clinical topics related to infections.

Möglichkeiten zur Nachholung der Fehlzeiten

Microbiology is taught through lectures and practicals. The Institute insists on active participation in practical sessions, as only there can the practical knowledge and skills necessary for the collection and handling of microbiological samples be acquired. A prerequisite for the signature - for the semester to be accepted - is that a student who misses a practical, if possible, make up for the missed class in another group in the same subject.

Prüfungsfragen

At the end of the semester, students take a written exam. The Institute provides five dates for the exam and for the follow-up exams. The topics of the exam consist of lectures and practicals. It is important to note that the required knowledge is often not available in the textbook and manuals.

The written exam consists of multiple-choice questions on separate topics.
