Full Description

The focus of this exam is the pathogenesis of parasitic infections, detailing how various parasites interact with their hosts and the resulting pathological effects. Specific attention is given to protozoan and helminth infections.

Gaining insight into the pathological basis of parasitic diseases is vital for improving intervention strategies and treatment efficacy. This knowledge is fundamental in the field of global health, particularly for endemic regions.

The assessment will test students' abilities to articulate verbal responses regarding the lifecycle of parasites and their effects on host health, including immunological responses.

Students may also need to evaluate the public health implications of parasitic infections in both local and global contexts.
