    Course objectives

Teaching will also include techniques and interpretation of the most important biochemical and immunology laboratory assays.

    Prerequisites

    Practical activities are done at the same time of the formal class teaching, and this implies the strict correlation between the 2 paths. There is no point in attending practicals if not attending classes with countinuity.
