In this course students will be given an intensive, in-depth introduction to the structure and function of all the body systems. Course topics include the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, immune, respiratory, urinary, digestive and reproductive. Emphasis is on basic physiological principles, interrelationships among systems, homeostatic mechanisms and introductory disease processes. The laboratory component provides a unique hands-on learning experience for exploration of human body systems with the use of prosected cadavers. In addition, students complete lab exercises to enhance their understanding of basic physiology.
