We offer you a complete training in infectious diseases and microbiology so that you are up to date with the main novelties in this field and offer a more personalized attention to your patients"

Microbiology studies are essential in healthcare areas, especially when the specialization is related to infectious diseases. These are two closely related fields that will allow physicians to have a higher level of training and, therefore, a better dedication in their daily practice.

The objective of this Postgraduate certificate in Infectious Diseases and Microbiology in the Emergency Room is to train health professionals in this field, so that they are able to offer more personalized care to patients with these pathologies. For this purpose, we have a team of experts with extensive professional and teaching experience, who can provide you with all their knowledge in a didactic way to promote your learning. 

It should be taken into account that in recent years, in addition to the classic infectious pathologies, there have been entities with a great impact on public health and of great complexity in their management, such as infection by the human immunodeficiency virus, the increase in bacterial resistance, infection in the context of patients with iatrogenic immunosuppression, or the exponential increase in imported tropical infectious diseases in our environment.

For this reason, it is necessary to have highly qualified doctors, capable of keeping up to date with the latest developments in this type of pathologies and the best therapies to solve them.

One of the advantages of this course is that, as it is a 100% online training, the professional will be able to decide when and from where to study, without commitments or obligations, thus being able to combine his or her study time with the rest of his or her daily obligations.

Superior training for high-level professionals who want to give a plus in the care of their patients"
