The course consists of 8 hours of frontal teaching with theoretical lessons and examples of applications and solving simple problems.
The verification of the students' preparation will be made through a written test with multiple choice answer options related to the entire program with a possible subsequent oral integration at teacher’s discretion.
Office hours every Tuesday, from 10:30 am to 12:30 am, at the Institute of Advanced Biomedical Technologies – ITAB, only upon appointment To contact the teacher: Tel. 0871 3556937 Email: s.spadone@unich.it
