Full Description
This examination focuses on the pathogenic roles of viruses in human disease, including mechanisms of viral entry, replication, and evasion of host defenses. Key theoretical principles include viral immunopathology and tropism.
The study of viral pathology is essential for understanding the impact of viral infections on public health, epidemic control, and vaccine development. It offers insights into designing antiviral therapies and preventive measures.
Students will be evaluated on their ability to verbally explain the complex interplay between viral agents and host immune responses, focusing on disease outcomes.
Enhanced understanding of different viral families and their associated diseases will also be assessed during the oral examination.
Sample Questions
- What mechanisms do viruses use to evade the host immune response?
- How do viral tropisms influence the types of diseases they cause?
