Physiology: |
|
This course examines the physiological function and regulation of major organ systems of the human body and their components. Topics include membranes and transport mechanisms; skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle; and the cardiovascular, respiratory, renal and gastrointestinal systems. Instruction consists of lectures, problem-solving and case-study sessions, and clinical correlations. The course not only emphasizes mechanistic and integrative functions of normal physiology but also introduces and explores abnormal function that occurs in many human diseases.
