Human Physiology

Catalog description

This will focus on the fundamental mechanisms of human physiology, with an emphasis on normal function; clinical correlations will be included where appropriate. The lecture portion will provide a detailed overview of body system function with respect to regulation and control mechanisms, especially cellular mechanisms. The laboratory portion will focus on the collection and analysis of system-based physiologic data using digital recording systems. Student designed experiments and literature reviews will be an integral part of the laboratory experience.
