Diagnostic Techniques And Analysis Trends For Establishing

Published Date: 02 Nov 2017

-The carrying out of the Intensive Programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP, during two weeks, takes into consideration the creation of the best interaction framework possible between the Master students and PhD students and the teachers of the 7 partner universities from 5 countries (University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, France; Istanbul University, Turkey;University of Athens, Greece; University of Medicine "Prof. Dr. Paraskev Stoyanov" – Varna, Bulgaria; Politechnique Institute of Bucharest, Romania; Faculty of Medicine "Lucian Blaga", Sibiu, Romania; "Transilvania" University of Brasov, Romania). (ERA-OpObj-1). From this point of view, we must emphasize that each lecturer in the project, teacher with academic degree and also with research activity, aims at presenting to the Master students and PhD students the state-of-the-art techniques used in the diagnosis of diseases, according to their own field of study and with the type of the research.

Together with the presentation of the research study by each lecturer according to the topics covered by the Intensive Programme title and since the students are also involved in the research

activities by the study programmes, master students and PhD students are involved in the perfect framework for the intercultural and multinational exchange of information is thus created.

(ERA-OpObj-2)

Moreover, the Intensive Programme taking place during two weeks enables the interactions between teachers and postgraduated students (master students and PhD students) in related interest fields. So, the Intensive Programme gets both an interdisciplinary character as much as the integration in European context by the complex topics approached, according to the title, Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP, taking into consideration the interest of attendance from 7 partners universities and 5 partner countries (University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, France; Istanbul University, Turkey;University of Athens, Greece; University of Medicine "Prof. Dr. Paraskev Stoyanov" – Varna, Bulgaria; Politechnique Institute of Bucharest, Romania; Faculty of Medicine "Lucian Blaga", Sibiu, Romania; "Transilvania" University of Brasov, Romania. (ERA-OpObj-3) In this context as an interdisciplinary character, the intensive Programme offer a high level teaching education at tertialy level, referring on modern techniques used for diseases diagnostic. (ERA-OpObj-5)

Consequently, the Intensive Programme, confers a high teaching, educational and scientific level by the participation of famous lecturers interested in the topics on

Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP,

well known all across Europe by their participation in scientific events, publications, by the involvement in various other types of research or educational projects, for example Erasmus mobilities. (ERA-OpObj-1)

Also postgraduated students are participants in differents organization and scientific events acknowledged in Europe and in other continents as well. (ERA-OpObj-5)

As an Intensive Programme, we must emphasize the participation of the students in internships and other types of scientific mobility, including their involvement in inter university exchanges of experience, which can be recognised on the Intensive Programme topics, offering experience changing by participants from 7 high level universities and from 5 countries. (University Claude Bernard Lyon 1, France; Istanbul University, Turkey;University of Athens, Greece; University of Medicine "Prof. Dr. Paraskev Stoyanov" – Varna, Bulgaria; Politechnique Institute of Bucharest, Romania; Faculty of Medicine "Lucian Blaga", Sibiu, Romania; "Transilvania" University of Brasov, Romania (ERA-OpObj-4)

In this context, we have to mention the involvement of the Master students and PhD students in similar teaching activities and which referring particularly to their field of research, so that the

scientific level of the Intensive Programme is visible increased just like its integration into the European context. (ERA-OpObj-1)

For the proper organization of the teaching activites from Intensive Programme during two weeks, we take into account the preparation of the teaching means as well as of the methodology of knowledge assessment, as a support for the development of innovative ICT-based content, services, pedagogies and practice for lifelong learning programme. (ERA-OpObj-6) For this, we shall prepare CDs, as course support materials, with all the lecturers’ presentations as videopresentations. So, in this way, each student is informed and oriented on the Intensive Programme topics. At the same time, we shall use video teaching demonstrations and demonstrative practical teaching applications, to present the information, used for understanding the diagnosis techniques presented by the lecturers. Also, questionnaires with simple and multiple choice answer presented as video projections designed to assess the knowledge after each taught topic referring to molecular and engineering genetic techniques for diagnostic, electron microscopy techniques; bioinformatics; personalized medicine; history in pathology; pathology tests for diagnostics; toxicology tests for diagnostic; cell death mechanisms; techniques for stem cells transplantationș; biomembranes and techniques for detection of biochemical components, as a extended topics on the Intensive Programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP.

The open interactive discussions between teachers and students ( Master students and PhD students) are meant to clarify the notions of the presented theoretical information. In this form of the Intensive Programme carrying out we find the Combination of the theoretical and practical teaching means. (ERA-OpObj-6)

The project website, represents a transparent method of knowing the aspects of this teaching programme carrying out, easily accessible as it is free, open both to the persons interested in the topics pertaining to academic and nonacademic environment.

The Intensive Programme Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP, carrying out represents the best framework for interdisciplinary and multinational cooperation and collaboration, offering free access to the continuation of the Intensive Programme with other types of projects or mobilities, as Leonardo da Vinci, Grundtvig, Comenius, addressing both to lecturers and first of all to the students to whom the Intensive Programme addresses to, holding the position of the educational activities assessors.

The attendance at the Intensive Programme, will be recognised at the end, after final written examination, using a test with questions, as videoprojection, by each presented lecture. After knowledges evaluation, learning recognision from each participant (Master student and PhD student), will be by Diploma Supplement and 3 ECTS, emitted by the coordinator university and recognised by partners universities.

Objectives

Considering the educational character of the Intensive Programme

Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP,

it enables the creation of the best study framework for the students by the topics and subjects the lecturers teach. The interaction of the teachers (lecturers) and students (Master students and PhD students) enables the exchange of experience according to the presented lectures and to the postgraduated students’ interest in one or more research fields of those presented in the Intensive Programme carrying out. According to the title

Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP,

topics are large representing a complexity of laboratory techniques (enzymatic, immuno-enzymatic, immuno-histochemical, immunologic techniques, biochemistry techniques, electronic microscope technologies, genetic and molecular techniques involved in the disease diagnosis, new methods of analyzing the cell death in pathology, technologies related to the stem cells, toxicological tests applied in pathology and data of the history of medicine in the context of the Intensive Programme topics and subjects, to which current and perspective interest field are added, such as theories of personalized medicine and the applicability in diagnosis, bioinformatics in pathology, techniques for detection and biofunctionalization of biochemical particles by biomembranes and their applicability in diagnostics). As an aim of the Intensive programme can be the development and interest for participants (Master students and PhD students) to extend their fields of research, by topics, in order to develop their research activity, hearing and learning by new techniques for diagnostic and their applicability for diagnostic in diseases. This aim of the Intensive Programme is valuable also for teachers, in order to extend their research activities, to can learn by the undergraduated and postgraduated studendts, as teachers with experience and to help them, in practical research activity, as part of postgraduated programmes, master or PhD programme. Using the Intensive Programme schedule topic, participants can make plans for other types of teaching courses, workshops, conferences and not at the end for new teaching projects.

Target groups

The Intensive Programme activities address to the Master students and PhD students, representing the target group, all being direct beneficiaries.

The teachers, lecturers involved in various research fields of the present intensive teaching project, competently presenting data of their personal experience in their own research field, represent the indirect beneficiaries.

Main activites

The goal of the Intensive programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP, is to present to the Master students and to the PhD students, diagnosis used to confirm a certain type of pathology. As such, we shall issue various teaching materials useful for the students for orientation and for the preliminary understanding of each lecture.

The teaching and informational materials represent at the same time a method of disseminating the information in the Intensive Programme topics and which may be a starting point in the development of other types of teaching and scientific projects and events.

Diploma Supplement and 3 ECTS awarded at the end of the Intensive Programme are the acknowledgement of the Master students and PhD students merits, of those who showed their will of taking part in the teaching activities. At the same time, reflect their interest and involvement in the Intensive Programme activities, by their participation all along two weeks, assimilating new knowledge, materialized in the outcome of the final assessment.

Learning outcomes

The design of the electronic handouts represents the first method of teaching interest.

The questionnaires with simple and multiple choice answers presented as video projections represent a method to assess the student’s knowledge providing time to think on the elaboration of the highly competent answers subsequent to the knowledge appropriation.

The CDs with lectures, teaching demonstrations as video projections and the practical applications, used as a demonstrative teaching method, represents, pedagogic and teaching methods used to assimilate the knowledge taught by the lecturers to the Master students and PhD students. The project website is a transparent method, easy IT-method, to found the project objectives, activities, pedagogic and teaching methods, schedule, learning materials, evaluation method.

Expected outputs

The lecturers find their merits at European level by the implication in teaching and scientific activities, in research and educational, as well as in the organization of scientific events acknowledged in Europe. Usually their activity is accompanied by scientific activity in related fields by the Master students and PhD students. In this context before starting the Intensive Programme will be make CDs for participants, with lectures as videopresentations. Website and questionnaire for evaluation, are also didactical tools, together with videoprojections used for teaching presentations.

Accordingly, the Intensive Programme book is conceived by the presentation of information on the research activity of the lecturers and also by the research activity of the Master students and PhD students participants at the Intensive Programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP.

The role of the Intensive Programme book elaboration is to disseminate the knowledge of the participants, included in the written pages, knowledges from lecturers, teachers with academic degrees and research activity and students (Master students and PhD students), involving in research, as part of academic media staff, involving also in other educational, cultural and scientific environments.

Project website

The creation of the own website represents a transparent method to present information by the aspects of its execution, on the carrying out rules, the period, the location, the goals, the partners, the schedule, the attending lecturers, the accommodation, tourist information, IT-method for faster knowledges by the Intensive Programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile " – DTHP, plan for second two weeks for June 2014, Brasov, Romania, coordinating by UTBV.

The Intensive Programme "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health

Profile" – DTHP, has as aims and objectives the presentations by the lecturers, teachers with research activity, different fields of the modern diagnosis techniques, currently used in diseases diagnostic.

The Intensive Programme making up of an extended variety of diagnosis techniques whose complexity confers an interdisciplinary character enables the international relationships character.

According to the intensive teaching title, the lectures presented by lecturers include a wide variety of diagnosis techniques (techniques for detection and biofunctionalization of biochemical particles by biomembranes, enzymatic, immuno-enzymatic, immuno-histochemical, immunologic techniques, bioinformatics as current and future scientific field, issues from the personalized medicine that also represents perspective fields with vast implications on the patient and on the pathologies ample, intricate genetic and molecular techniques used in the diagnosis of diseases, modern methods of analyzing the mechanisms of apoptosis in pathology, technologies related to transplant and stem cells, toxicology tests applied in pathology, history of medicine in pathology).

The innovative character of the Intensive Programme is provided by the approach of the complexity of the diagnosis techniques in an extremely wide sphere of the current pathology, according to the project title.

The topics approach are according to the Intensive Programme title "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile" – DTHP.

The topics are approached by lecturers from 7 partners universities ( Claude Bernard Lyon 1- University, Istanbul University, Athene University, University of Medicine Varna, Politechnique University Bucharest, Faculty of Medicine Lucian Blaga Sibiu, Transilvania University of Brasov ) and 5 countries ( France, Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Romania) and it creates the interdisciplinary specificity of the Intensive Programme, putting it in the European context.

The complexity of the topic by diseases diagnostic techniques, the presentation tools by CDs, as support of the teaching course with videolectures, open discussions between students (Master students and PhD students) and teachers, video teaching demonstrations and teaching practical applications used to understand each technique as well as the assessment ways by questionnaires with two types of questions with simple answer and multiple choice answer which are video presented, confer the innovative character of the Intensive Programme.

The book of the intensive Programme reunites the concerns of the lecturers in their research fields and it also proposes to train the Master students and PhD students by the presentation of their own concerns in the research field which also confers an innovating character by the brief or extended presentation by the lecturers of the scientific concerns of the participants.

The Intensive Programme topic addressed to a complexity of fiels for research, in respect of the title, "Diagnostic Techniques and Analysis Trends for Establishing a Health Profile" – DTHP.

In this context, Enzymatic techniques is used for diagnosis reffering to the study of the enzymatic activity of a particular enzyme, given that its study is required with a view to establishing a diagnosis. Enzymology is continued in the same line with the immunoenzymatic techniques for diagnosis. Among them, ELISA technique may be mentioned, based on an antigen-antibody reaction, with applicability in detecting viral antigens, antibodies or in detecting mycotoxins, hormones, cytokines, tumour markers, drugs, as well as for instance the reaction Quantiferon TB-Gold, used in the indirect diagnosis of the infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Immunohistochemistry is the combination between immunology and histochemistry; and it resorts to monoclonal antibodies whereto enzymes are linked, coupled in their turn to portions of the antibody, with chromogenic substrates placed. The purpose of the technique is to highlight the antigenic substances in a tissue, cell or on subcellular level, of usefulness in diagnosing pathologies.

In general, immunochemical tests based on an antigen-antibody reaction are used to the purpose of determining tumour, allergologic, autoimmune and endocrine markers.

Immunochemical tests consist in marking the antigen or the antibody with a substance capable of generating a measurable signal. In this context, RIA radioimmunologic tests resort to isotope marking, EIA tests resort to enzyme marking, FIA tests resort to fluorescent substance marking and CLIA tests use, for marking,

chemiluminescence-generating molecules. ECLIA tests are also known, which resort to organic compounds for marking and detection through electrochemiluminescence.

Methods for analyzing DNA, RNA, proteins, CRP, RE, in situ hibridization inscribe within modern genetic technologies. They are combined with molecular diagnostic techniques used for diagnosis. DNA identification likewise stands for a technique used in forensic investigations. Immunological and immunoenzymatic techniques are also used in the case of the contamination with various microorganisms, CRP reaction being one of the main detection methods.

Analysis techniques upon the apoptotic mechanisms in diseases, in the context of the current pathology, are of importance in the investigations used for diagnosing cancer. Apoptotic mechanisms are controlled in two activation ways. The extrinsic way involves the tumour necrosis factor and the intrinsic way involves the mitochondria, being controlled by proteins pertaining to the family BcL-2. Apoptosis follows a sequence of steps, involving proapototic factors, caspase cascades, as well as useful pores in the transition of the mitochondria, key organelles in apoptosis.

Immunological analysis likewise represents a technique used in investigations such as stem cell transplantation, and also in numerous other types of pathologies, among whom lymphatic diseases, systemic diseases.

Some aspects in the field of personalized medicine refer to the study of the individual’s genetic profile, with a view to applying the adequate therapy, defining pharmacogenetics. Genetic predisposition tests, genomic techniques, proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics are used in personalized medicine. The applicability of this technique is extended into a complex range of pathologies; the neoplastic diseases and those with irradiation-risk to the patients through exposure to the imaging-investigation equipment being of interest.

A category of modern techniques currently used for diagnosis is represented by the electron microscopy studies, which allow ultrastructural investigations upon the fragments of tissue and/or organ, to the purpose of establishing the modifications that appear on cellular and subcellular level, cell membrane, cell organelles, nucleus. The ultrastructural modifications of the cellular and subcellular components occur in variegated pathological affections, with reference to all organs. Among the electron microscopy techniques used in studying current pathology, TEM, SEM and LSEM may be mentioned.

Since the pathology of our days is complex, the investigation techniques used for diagnosis refer to pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, neurological, neurodegenerative and psychiatric pathology, to the study of cancer, the mechanisms involved in organ transplantation, systemic diseases, the applicability in medicine of the contamination with microorganisms; therefore the multidisciplinary character of IP can be noticed.

To the purpose of good Intensive Programme proceedings, it is envisaged to prepare the didactic material for the Master students and PhD students, on electronic course support, in the form of CDs, as video projections, together with questionnaire videopresented, using questions by topics, composed with simple or multiple-choice answers, in order to assess the knowledge retention by students. These are preceded by informal discussions on each topic, unfolding between teachers (lecturers) and students (Master students and PhD students) and are followed, after the application of the assessment survey, by practical teaching demonstrations and video demonstrations, with a view to retaining the taught technique and to preparing the Master students and PhD students’ final assessment for obtaining Diploma Supplement and ECTS.
