OVERVIEW

The teaching aims through the modules of Applied Medical Sciences and Chromatography to introduce the student to the techniques with which he interfaces in the world of work.

The Applied Medical Sciences module offers an in-depth study of the "Quality Management System", specifically provides management tools for organizational systems and suggests a method of approach that has "learning from mistakes" as its driving force. This supports "Cytofluorimetry", a methodology that arises from scientific research, but is increasingly used also in diagnostics for the phenotyping of single cells of various kinds.

The Chromatography module proposes the study of the fundamental principles of the technique and of the detection systems. The attention is focused on Mass Spectrometry, Gas Chromatography, techniques widely used in work activities. The basic principles provided will facilitate the internships by introducing the student to the working world.
