Learning Objectives

Morfologia e Microscopia D’organo
The course will provide to student the necessary skills for a full comprehension of the structural complexity of the human body and the relationship occurring between morphology and function. The aim of the microscopic anatomy course is to provide the knowledge regarding the microscopic structure of organs and the skills to carry out the structural differential analysis between them.The course will also provide basic notions on regenerative medicine and in particular regarding tissue engineering and techniques for organoids preparation
ELEMENTI DI EMBRIOLOGIA
The ELEMENTS OF EMBRYOLOGY module purpose is to provide students with appropriate skills on the processes of histogenesis and human embryology, with a detailed description of human prenatal development in the various stages of development, from the zygote (fertilization) to the embryo (embryogenesis) up to IV week of development and on the fundamental aspects of the tissues of the human body.

Detailed Course Content

Morfologia e Microscopia D’organo
The lectures will provide notions of microscopic anatomy of the following organs:
- Heart and blood vessels (arteries, veins and capillaries)
- lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, spleen, peyer plaques, thymus, bone marrow
- larynx, trachea, main bronchi and their branches, lungs, alveolus structure, pleura.
- pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, liver and pancreas.
- kidneys and excretory passages of urine.
- skin and skin appendages
- organization of nervous tissue
In addition, the course will provide basic notions on methods to organ processing for microscopic analysis. Some topics of regenerative medicine will also be discussed such as tissue engineering techniques and organoids preparation

During the laboratory exercises, students will assist to preparation of various organs section on slide and will perform the differential analysis among them through optical or fluorescence microscopy analisys
ELEMENTI DI EMBRIOLOGIA
The course develops the knowledge of the different cell types and their organization in the various constituent tissues of the human body, therefore skills on the morphological and microscopic structure of the tissues in the different components. Furthermore, the aim of the course is to provide the student with a general knowledge of human embryology with a detailed description of human prenatal development in the various stages of development, from the zygote (fertilization) to the embryo (embryogenesis) to the fetus (organogenesis) up to birth. , with reference to the related control and regulation mechanisms.
