Through this course, students will learn the basic knowledge of pathogen biology and immunology, know the practical application and new progress of medical-related pathogen biology and immunology theory; improve students' ability to analyze and solve problems; accumulate the necessary knowledge for the subsequent study of related courses, and lay a solid foundation for future clinical work. Through the study of practical courses, students will master some basic skills of pathogen biology and immunology experiments and have preliminary experimental operation ability; deepen their understanding of the interrelationship between pathogenic organisms and human body and environment, establish the concept of asepsis and the basic concept of preventive medicine; cultivate students' ability of clinical observation, analysis and problem solving.
