Overview

Graduates of “Biologia Sperimentale ed Applicata” will have a solid and integrated cultural preparation in basic biology and in the different sectors of applied biology.
Graduates will also gain in-depth knowledge of instrumental methodology, analytical tools and techniques for acquiring and analyzing biological data.
The curricula include training activities aimed at acquiring in-depth knowledge of basic biology and its applications, with particular focus on application knowledge, in relation to: biomolecules, cells, tissues and organisms under normal and altered conditions; the environmental effects on living things, including man; and the acquisition of techniques useful for the understanding of phenomena at biomolecular and cellular levels.
The course involves the completion of a significant experimental activity and the production of a paper in which original results related to the activity carried out are reported.
If the cultural and professional interests of the student are oriented towards environmental studies then they will be encouraged to acquire in-depth theoretical skills related to: the overall characteristics of living beings, plants, animals and micro-organisms; the factors and mechanisms responsible for environmental changes; and the main biochemical, genetic, biomolecular, ecotoxicological and statistical survey techniques applied to the study of the environment and the evaluation of its quality.
If the student would prefer to deepen biomedical studies, they will be encouraged to acquire knowledge on the basis of cellular and molecular biology, with particular reference to: human biology; the mechanisms for the onset of the main pathologies, in particular vascular and tumor; as well as the main biochemical, genetic, biomolecular, immunological, physiological and bioinformatic investigation techniques.
If the cultural and professional orientation of the student are oriented towards the acquisition of skills related to the bioanalyses, the following aspects of the biochemical, genetic and microbiological disciplines will be favored: a) the model operation of the instrumentation currently in use to carry out surveys in hospital laboratories and laboratories dealing with environmental and chemical-physical pollution, both indoor and outdoor b) the most common statistical analysis surveys c) regulations concerning safety and prevention in the food, labor, environment and health sectors
