Human Papilloma Virus - from molecular biology to global health - an eLearning course, 5th Feb-9th March, 2018

In this internet-based one-week (1,5HEC) eLearning course, you will get insights and knowledge of:
- HPV infection and the burden of HPV-associated diseases
- methods for detection of HPV and the bioinformatics methods for HPV classification.
- best practice for organized cervical screening.
- assessment of internationally standardized quality indicators of cervical screening
- validation of results from screening and vaccination and their implications on the cancer burden.

You will explore how this knowledge can be applied to reduce the risk of HPV-associated diseases. Taking part in an online discussion thread will give you a chance to reflect on the impact of HPV vaccination and screening in society. You will also learn about HPV analysis methods and their applications for global health.

Course content
Block 1, Day 1-3: Molecular Biology of HPV
Block 2, Day 3-4: Cervical Screening and HPV vaccination
Block 3, Day 5-6: Quality Assurance and Follow-up of HPV-targeted Cancer Control
