Fundamentals of Disease & Treatment is one of the first courses in the first semester of Year 1 and is an important introduction to the integrated approach that is used in the delivery of the courses in Stage 1. As one of the required core courses, it contributes 6 credits towards your degree.
It provides an early introduction to basic disease processes such as infection, inflammation, genetic disorders, tumor pathology and disorders of growth. This is important in assisting you later on in the course to appreciate how these affect the different organ systems.
In addition, it provides an introduction to the chemical structures and families of drugs that are used in the treatment of patients and how they work to modulate disease processes.
