Form of study
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Ability to independently apply knowledge of human physiology, biological chemistry,
manipulation techniques in clinical medicine, pathomorphology and pathophysiology,
internal medicine with evaluation of research results, clinical laboratory
diagnostics, microbiology with microbiological diagnostics, pediatrics with evaluation of
results of research, immunology with immunological diagnostics, infectious

Course content
The discipline highlights the mechanisms of innate and acquired immunity, features of the immune response to bacterial, viral, parasitic and fungal infections, infection-associated immunopathological conditions and the role of infectious agents as triggers of autoimmune
processes. Considerable attention is paid to clinical and immunological markers, interpretation of
the results of immunological studies, evaluation of immunograms, prognostic value of
immunological indicators, as well as the principles of active and passive immunoprophylaxis
as an example of a controlled immune response in infectious pathology.
