Written by renowned professors drawing on their experience gained in the world's most innovative biotechnology market, Japan, this advanced textbook provides an excellent and comprehensive introduction to the latest developments in the field. It provides an array of questions & answers and features numerous applied examples, extending to industrial applications with chapters on medical devices and downstream operations in bioprocesses. Useful for students studying the fundamentals of biochemical engineering, as well as for chemical engineers already working in this vital and expanding field.

The textbook examines the typical forms of structural and functional pathology that are characteristic for cellular, tissue, organ, and other levels of vital activity. The emphasis is on the interrelationship of functional, biochemical and structural changes, as well as disadaptive and adaptive responses. Each chapter is accompanied by control questions and test tasks. The material is prepared taking into account the program on discipline "Pathology" and is intended for students of higher medical educational institutions, studying in the specialty of pharmacy. The study of this material contributes to the formation of general cultural (GK) and professional (PC) competencies: • the ability to abstract thought, analysis, synthesis (GK-1); • the ability to assess morpho-functional physiological states and pathological processes in human body for solving professional problems (PC-8).

This textbook is a contribution by a community of experienced lecturers from the Academician A.I. Strukov Department of Pathological Anatomy, I.M. Sechenov First Moscow State Medical University (Sechenov University), among contributors there are also leading experts from other medical universities. Coverage of the main issues of general and special pathological ana tomy is based on the principle of unity between structure and function. The authors tried to show not only the morphological basis of pathological processes and diseases, but also their connection with changes in body functions, resulting in certain symptoms of diseases, as well as the dynamics of their development. This approach provides a basis for further study of all clinical disciplines. Besides pathological anatomy, the manual describes general medical concepts, rules of writing clinical and pathoanatomic diagnoses, categories and causes of diagnostic discrepancies, etc. It helps students develop clinical thinking possible only if based on deep knowledge and understanding of objective laws that underlie pathological processes in the affected body. Thus, the study of pathological anatomy is the most important stage in training clinicians and this text meets the challenge. The textbook is intended for students of medical, pediatric, preventive medicine and dental facul ties of medical universities.
