General Information

Overview

In this unit, you will study the regional anatomy and physiology of the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, nervous, lymphatic, respiratory and digestive human body systems. You will apply this knowledge in laboratory sessions using anatomical models and plastinates through a series of practical exercises. In addition, you will gain an appreciation of the integrative nature of anatomy and physiology of the human body with special emphasis on the study of the head and neck, thorax, abdomen, back and upper limbs.
