HSOC-605-0 Physiology 1

Catalog description

The course will take a systems-based approach to study the fundamental principles of medical physiology as it applies to health and disease. Physiology 1 will cover nerve, cardiovascular, respiratory, and gastrointestinal physiology. Emphasis will be on understanding basic physiological mechanisms in a normal healthy adult and will be presented at the gross, cellular and/or molecular level. Where appropriate, descriptions of normal physiology will be integrated with pathophysiological scenarios for emphasis and clinical relevance. (Course Coordinator: Ted Wong)
