Competencies
| Name | Weight |
|---|---|
| Understand the mechanisms of cation incorporation into cells, as well as the cellular strategies to detoxify and/or sequester physiological metals at toxic concentrations and xenobiotic metals, depending on the characteristics and speciation of metals. | 15.0 % |
| Understand the cellular and molecular responses to pollution by organic xenobiotics, including their biotransformation, involvement in oxyradical generation, and mechanisms and strategies of cellular and molecular adaptation. | 20.0 % |
| Understand the cellular and molecular pathways that lead to toxicant-caused genotoxic and non-genotoxic DNA and chromosomal damage, including repair mechanisms, and further development of preneoplastic and neoplastic diseases. | 20.0 % |
| Understand the importance of pollutants effects on cell signalling and homeostasis of the endocrine system, with emphasis in ecologically relevant effects on reproduction. | 15.0 % |
| Understand the implications of the changes at cellular and molecular level in the general health condition of the individuals and the natural populations, with the aim of achieving a reasonable and sustainable exploitation of natural resources. | 15.0 % |
| Understand the rationale for the use of cellular and molecular responses to pollutants in environmental monitoring and in environmental risk assessment, including the limitations and challenges of the approach. Role of emerging toxico-genomics and proteomics in new biomarker discovery. | 15.0 % |
