Section Description
Advanced Medical Microbiology - Bacteriology • The overall goal of this course is to inform students on bacterial pathogens and their virulence factors. The lecture portion of the course is a detailed examination of ~25 bacterial pathogens along with their associated toxins, adhesins, and immune avoidance mechanisms will be undertaken using a lecture-based format. The laboratory portion of the course allows students to identify unknown bacterial pathogens from clinical samples using microbiological and biochemical assays.
Section Expectation
Lecture meets twice a week for ~75 min. followed by the laboratory component of the course for ~3 hours.
