Course Enrolment Limitations

The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.

fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with

• Applied biochemistry (programme PřF, B-BIC)
• Biochemistry (programme PřF, B-BIC)

Course objectives

The goal of this course is to provide general basic knowledge about biochemical and molecular aspects of pathobiological processes and to understand analytes in clinical biochemistry diagnostics.

At the end of the course students should be able to:
understand the basic physiological events in healthy human organism;
understand and explain relationships between analytical parameters determined in clinical biochemistry laboratories ans their diagnostic indication;

Learning outcomes

Student will be able to understant basic function of human organism in relation with the commonly used biochemical markers connected with clinical biochemistry diagnostics
