The social and economic impact of infectious illnesses on living beings has made microbiology one of the most studied fields in sciences, including medical sciences. Microbiology covers areas such as bacteriology, virology, mycology, parasitology and medical entomology, among others. This area not only attempts to classify, identify, determine pathogenesis, survival mechanisms, diagnostic tests and treatment of agents recognized historically as the cause of illnesses, re-emerging agents, but also the new agents transmitted to man. Since it is geographically located in the tropics, Colombia is a country with a high infectious disease rate. It is therefore the duty of physicians to learn the microbial agents in their different aspects for diagnosis and treatment. Similarly, thanks to globalization (commercialization of products and continuous trips between countries and continents), it is important to learn the infectious agents that circulate around the world due to the presence of epidemics such as those we are dealing with today.

The current development and advances in immunology, along with the multiple applications in clinical practices, laboratory, therapeutics and research have made it necessary for students of medicine to delve into this area of medical sciences early on in their training. Understanding immunology not only as a system of defense against external aggressions, but also as a participant in pathological processes has led to the discovery of diagnostic methods and new forms of therapy. This course is an introduction to basic immunology as a natural as well as specific response. By the end of the course, students will be capable of understanding the basic immunological phenomena and the general mechanisms that usually operate in the human immune system.

Pathology is the part of medicine in charge of capturing a global view of a disease starting with the comprehensive diagnosis and the correlations that it manages to make of the factors and mechanisms involved in the process of a disease. At present, there are different sources of information and experimentation, such as the procedures and tools used to understand the processes of alteration in the organism: Chemical processes in the laboratory, the study of specimens, biopsies, clinical-pathological reports, microscopic and macroscopic observation before and after death –autopsies-, images, medical histories, illnesses, etc. Recognizing these sources of information is fundamental as input for the prevention and curing of diseases.

Today, you can practically say there is no branch of science where medicine is not used, either for therapeutic or prophylactic application, or for diagnostic purposes, this is why physicians are required to have an extensive understanding of pharmacology, to be able to select medicines properly from among the number of options available on the market and use medicine reasonably in their practice. This course in basic pharmacology, aimed at students of medicine, has been designed in order to achieve this objective. This course is a part of the comprehensive education of students of medicine in pharmacology, along with training in clinical pharmacology and pharmacotherapeutics.

Due to our geographic location, the diseases caused by microorganisms represent a significant percentage of visits to the doctor, and generate public health problems in specific regions of the country. Among the agents that cause these illnesses, parasites represent an important area in our Latin American countries. In Colombia, different sources of transmission of parasitic diseases, favored by the climatic conditions and the presence of animal vectors and reservoirs, have been recognized and studied. In addition, permanent or occasional human invasion is more common in inhospitable regions of the country that allow the perpetuation of the transmission of an illness or the description of other infectious agents in humans. In the course of Medical Parasitology, together with parasitologists of the Universidad de los Andes, reviews the main parasitic diseases in humans from different perspectives such as basic science, clinical science and research.
