Participants have understood the principles of host-pathogen interactions. This includes: the methods used to study host-pathogen interactions; the pathogen-induced processes governing entry into the host and host colonization; the reaction of the host to pathogens; the mechanisms whereby the microorganisms bypass the immune system; the mechanisms that trigger pathogen and host-induced disease symptoms.
Maximum points: 20. Usually 4 questions, 5 points/question
