Biochemistry has an irreplaceable role in study of medicine. The students should learn about biochemical reactions beyond all living processes including diseases. The knowledge will help them later to diagnose and treat many diseases correctly. Biochemistry is so fundamental for study of pathobiochemistry, physiology, pathophysiology, clinical biochemistry and other subjects of medicine.

A lecture from psychology and medical communication focuses now on topics about stress: how you decide something is stressful, what are psychological responses to stress, how can people adapt to stress, which personality and social factors help or hinder your coping processes, and how to develop a stress management program. 

Practical exercises from Medical Chemistry is a set of experimental exercises designed for a better understanding of the subject. Laboratory manuals for the practical exercises are arranged into weeks according to the syllabus and contain theoretical introduction as well as experimental procedures for each exercise. Published material represents an effective instrument for understanding of the basic principles of Medical Chemistry as well as a suitable additional material for preparation for final examination.

This lecture is aimed on the most often communication situations appeared between dentist and his/her patients that have to be solved during the dental treatment. It is also intended on the principles of their effective communication. The lecture contains part about situational factors influencing communication, and the last part including 9 most needed communication skills that dentists have to use in their daily practice.

Lectures are devoted to students of the 2nd year of study in the field of General medicine. The students can find here all lectures of head and neck (skull, muscles, arterial blood supply, venous and lymphatic drainage, nerve supply) and central nervous system – CNS (spinal cord and brain), eye and ear.

Educational network MEFANET organizes 13th international conference of Czech and Slovak faculties of medicine, focused on e-learning and medical informatics in the education of medical disciplines. The registration for the conference will be available at the conference webpage. MEFANET 2019 will take place on 27–28 November 2019 in Brno, Czech Republic.
 

The subject Medical Chemistry includes selected chapters from general, inorganic, physical, organic and bioorganic chemistry. Teaching is placed to the 1st semester of the study at Medical Faculty of UPJŠ. Knowledge of the structure and function of chemical substances and compounds, as well as their interaction and factors which can influence these interactions is very important for incoming doctors. The chapters from Medical Chemistry represent the basis for the study of Medical Biochemistry, Patobiochemistry, Patophysiology, Clinical Biochemistry, and many others specialized subjects of the medical studies.

The subject Medical Chemistry includes selected chapters from general, inorganic, physical and organic chemistry, chemistry of elements and important dental compounds, introduction to biochemistry and methodologically very important – analytical chemistry. Teaching is placed to the 1st semester of the study at Medical Faculty of UPJŠ. The knowledge of the structure and function of chemical compounds and substances, as well as of the fundamental dental materials, e.g. amalgams, porcelains, polymers, etc. is very important for the dentist, since use them daily during the praxis. The chapters from Medical Chemistry represent the basis for the next study of Dental Materials, Medical Biochemistry, Pathobiochemistry, Pathophysiology, Clinical Biochemistry, and others principal subjects of dental medicine study.
 

Lectures are devoted to students of the 1st year of study - General medicine. The students can find here all lectures of upper limb (skeleton, joints, muscles, arteries, veins, lymphatic drainage and regional anatomy) and lower limb (skeleton, joints, muscles, arteries, veins, lymphatic drainage and regional anatomy).
