Ziele (*)The main course objective is to initiate students into the broad research field of biomedicine, which involves not only wide range of interconnected research disciplines, but is one of the most developing and growing area of industry, focused on human health. This makes biomedicine very attractive and perspective field of study. Students will familiarize themselves with main areas and trends in biomedical research, basic principles of human body functioning at organismal, tissue, cellular, molecular and biochemical level. Chosen human pathological states or diseases will be used to show the interconnection among various biomedical disciplines. Ethical and legal aspects of biomedical and clinical research will be discussed. The course should prepare students for further, more specialized subjects and should enable them to think about individual biological processes in broader perspective.
