Learning unit contents
The consequences of aggressions (stress) on cells and tissues are studied: reversible injury, cell death by necrosis, apoptosis or autophagy, tissue necroses, adaptation processes at the cell or tissue level, cell or tissue overloading.
Next, the subsequent reactions are discussed: inflammation, immunity, repair, healing.
The hypersensitivy reactions contribute to cell and tissue damage; some particular cases such as tuberculosis, graft rejection, auto-immune diseases are reviewed.
Vascular diseases as well as pathological conditions leading to thrombosis and embolism are studied and their consequences, ie. infarcts, are described.
The study of benign and malignant tumors include morphological features and biological properties as well as an overview on their etiology and pathogenesis.

Learning outcomes of the learning unit
Pathology is the study of diseases. The course of General Pathology aims at describing the lesions induced by aggressions and stress in cells and tissues as well as the reactions of the body. Besides, the course defines the aetiology and discusses the pathogenesis of the lesions.
General Pathology is complementary to Histology & Biochemical pathology and is the basis of comprehensive medicine; from aetiology to lesions through pathogenesis, this course introduces the study of the consequences of cell and tissue injury on the functions of the organs (physiopathology) and the expression of these consequences as diseases.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Practical courses: 1) at the microscope; two sessions of two hours (30 to 40 students) preceded by an explanation lecture.
2) on-line auto-evaluation (false or true questions based on concrete cases).
Modalities : Practical courses at the histology & pathology room (B36, niv -1, 4000 Sart Tilman); assistance mandatory and checked; no interrogation but appreciation on the participation to the evaluation on-line.
A web site (http://www.anapatho.ulg.ac.be/) is also available for the students.

Assessment methods and criteria
Any session :
- In-person
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire, open-ended questions )
- Remote
written exam ( multiple-choice questionnaire, open-ended questions )
- If evaluation in "hybrid"
preferred in-person
Additional information:
Written examinations for the theorical and practical parts (presential or remote) (questions with True or False options, open question with short answers). During the oral integrative examination, the students may be questioned on the general pathology course.

Organizational remarks
Some students may be selected to become "tutors" for other students at the practical courses. Conditions : good results at the examinations of Pathology (theory and practical lessons); good global results (grades); motivation.
Possibility to performe research (cancerogenesis, anti-tumor immunity,...).
Conditions : good global results (grades); motivation.
