Learning Objectives

• Hematology I
  

  The aim of the course is to allow the student to recognize the different hematological diseases with insights into methodology necessary to identify, classify and monitor: automated hematological methods, cytogenetics and molecular biology, flow cytometry, electrophoretic methods to measure specific analytes as markers of hematological malignancy.

• Hematology II
  

  The aim of the course is to allow the student to recognize the different hematological diseases with insights into methodology necessary to identify, classify and monitor: automated hematological methods,cytogenetics and molecular biology, flow cytometry, electrophoretic methods to measure specific analytes as markers of hematological malignancy.
