Objectives of the courses
The objective of the course is to present the hereditary laws of the transmission of the physiological and pathological characters and the diagnostic approach based on current technology the medical personnel have to apply to study the hereditary diseases. Il corso si propone di introdurre lo studente alle leggi dell’ereditarietà dei caratteri fisiologici e patologici e all’approccio diagnostico e tecnologico che l’operatore sanitario deve attuare per studiare le malattie ereditarie.
