Movement Science II - Human Physiology/ Pathophysiology

Catalog description

The 5-course Movement Science Series investigates basic science principles, structures and functions, and its correlation and application into patient management taught in other concurrent courses. MS2, the 2nd of 5 courses, investigates the fundamentals of human physiology relating to basic cell function, embryology, and select body systems; specifically the cardiopulmonary, circulatory, neuromuscular, and body defense systems in health and disease. Course content is organized along five themes: homeostasis & control systems, metabolism, structure/function relationships, communication, and pathophysiology. Clinical case scenarios integrate course content with concurrent courses and within the scope of PT practice.
