An avant-garde, dynamic and intensive Postgraduate diploma which will allow you to get up to date on all the latest news about the Respiratory Microbiota and its relationship with allergies, 100% online and in only 6 month”

The advances that have been made in the field of microbiota and its role in human health have determined that the involvement of some systems' microorganisms, such as the respiratory or intestinal systems, are essential for the prevention or treatment of allergies and intolerances. A clear example of this is the increased risk of suffering some type of atopic dermatitis, rhinitis or asthma after repeated or prolonged consumption of antibiotics at an early age. Therefore, the use of probiotics and prebiotics in the medical field of allergology to strengthen the immune system should be the order of the day, in order to be able to offer patients increasingly effective and efficient alternatives for their health. 

In order to provide professionals in this sector with the most exhaustive and innovative information related to the Respiratory Microbiota and Allergies, TECH and its team of biologists and medical specialists have developed this comprehensive Postgraduate diploma. This is a rigorous and innovative program through which students will be able to immerse themselves in the advances that have been made in this field through 450 hours of theoretical, practical and additional content. They will work with the latest clinical evidence related to the bacteria that colonize the respiratory tract and help prevent and alleviate diseases and conditions, as well as strengthen the immune system. 

All this 100% online and over 6 months, during which students will have access to a state-of-the-art Virtual Campus, characterized not only by its compatibility with any device with Internet connection, but also by the innovative academic tools it includes. It is, therefore, a flexible, multidisciplinary experience adapted to physicians' needs, thanks to which they will be able to update their knowledge from wherever they want and with a schedule fully adapted to their availability, allowing them to combine their course with their daily practice.
