Summary human diseases including lectures/notes and ppt for the English biomedical Master.
It is a draft version, meaning that everything is in it, but lay-out has not been properly checked. Will upload the new version as soon as possible.
Human disease
Please note that this is a draft, I refine it and upload later
The emphasis will be on the clinical practice of diagnosis and therapy, rather than on the scientific
basis to understand disease processes
