| Learning outcomes |
|
Student will get acquainted with basis of new, dynamically-developing discipline, in which immunology meets the clinical aspects of biological therapy, i.e. treatment based on blocking key molecules of immunopathological reactions by antibodies and other antagonists. After introductory review of theoretical aspects, clinical specialists will present case reports and discuss specific applications of biologicals into treatment of medically and socioeconomically important disease from areas from oncology, autoimmune diseases of nervous system or musculoskeletal system and/or asthma, allergy and pulmonary disorders.
Graduates should be able to involve theoretical principles of immunology into applied area of biological therapy. Obtained knowledge of is applicable in postgradual study and also in pregradual research practice. |
