In the event of a health emergency that requires the confinement of the population or that implies mobility restrictions during this course, an attempt will be made to adapt the teaching activity and the evaluation. If this situation occurs, the adaptations will be reported in the Moodle space for each subject. This subject aims to provide with basic knowledge in pharmacology and immunology to understand how certain types of biotechnological products are transformed into drugs (i.e. vaccine development). The acquired knowledge will allow communication with professionals from the pharmaceutical industry, such as scientific researchers, pharmacists, clinical pharmacologists or pharmaceutical "marketing" specialists. The knowledge and detailed analysis of the biotechnological products present on the market will lay the foundations to assess the current situation and the prospects of biotechnological products as human therapeutic agents. In conclusion, it is intended that the student acquire basic notions that prepare him for a potential incorporation in the pharmaceutical industry. |
