This document outlines the syllabus for the MIC 206 Mycology course. The key points are:
1. The course objectives are for students to learn about fungal classification, reproduction, relationships with other organisms, and applications.
2. Assessment includes tests, lab reports, assignments, and a final exam worth a total of 100%.
3. The course involves 2 hours of lectures and 2 hours of practical lab per week.
4. Topics over the 15 weeks include fungal structure, reproduction, growth, interactions with other organisms, and industrial uses. Students will also participate in a site visit and group video project.
Biofilm formation has been implicated in persistent tissue infections such as chronic wound infection, chronic otitis media, chronic osteomyelitis, chronic rhinosinusitis, recurrent urinary tract infection, endocarditic and cystic fibrosis-associated lung infection.They are equally resistant to various antimicrobial treatments compared to their planktonic form
El 12 de mayo de 2017 celebramos en la Fundación Ramó Areces una jornada con IS Global y Unitaid sobre enfermedades transmitidas por vectores, como la malaria, entre otras.
This course introduces students to the basics and intricacies of Medical Microbiology. The students will learn about the history, relationship between hosts and microbes, and safety measures in a Clinical Microbiology lab in the first unit. The second unit imparts knowledge about the various types of microscopes, the principles of sterilization, and biomedical waste management. The final unit delves into the characteristics, growth, and nutrition of microbes, the methods of culture, an introduction to Immunology, and the care and handling of laboratory animals. The course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of these topics, supplemented with practical lab experience to foster a solid foundation for future explorations in the field of Medical Microbiology.

3. OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this course, students should be
able to:
1. Define terms and discuss concepts of fungi in
classification, reproduction, cell wall, vegetative
growth, dimorphism of microbiology.
2. Relate fungi with plants, animals, humans and
other organisms mutualistic and parasitic
relationships.
3. Apply fungi in food industries, waste treatment,
energy production, crop improvement and
medicine.
4. 4. Prepare specimens, use microscope to examine,
identify and differentiate the different fungi.
5. Design basic problem solving procedures for the
enumeration of bioburden and microbial load from
microbiological samples.
