Learning Outcomes
By the end of the semester, students will be able to know the biochemical and molecular basis of the pathophysiology of different diseases in the vast spectrum of Internal Medicine and Surgery. They will be acquainted with all those lab exams necessary for the investigation of diseases and their interpretation, and they will have understood the clinical significance of the assessment of biochemical parameters and biomarkers in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment follow-up in different pathological conditions and diseases.

Description
The use of new technology and multimedia is fundamental in the teaching of Clinical Biochemistry; all biochemical determinations during the laboratory exercise of the students take place by using specific instruments, such as spectrophotometers; lectures are given by the use of multimedia; students may get in contact with their Professors directly, via elearning and via email. Finally, for the evaluation of students at the end of the laboratory lessons a quiz is given via elearning and the oral examination of Clinical Biochemistry as a course at the end of the semester is computer-based as it takes place via ZOOM.
