Qualification-goals/Competencies:
- Students are able to relate important historical dates and persons of pathology to diagnostic methods. They can describe methods like descriptive pathology, gross section, immunohistochemistry and molecular pathology.
- They are able to define terms like health, illness, death, aetiology and pathogenesis. Evaluating a case report, they will recognize the right definition.
