Courses

This course is designed to provide study of anatomy and physiology of the head and neck with a basic understanding of body structure and function. Emphasis will be placed on tooth and root morphology, and embryological and histological correlations. It provides a foundation essential to an understanding of dental health. Upon completion, students should be able to discuss and identify the basic structure and function of the human body specifically the head, neck, and dentition.

This course is a study of histology, genetics, human anatomy and physiology, with an emphasis in neuroanatomy and neurophysiology. NA 702 integrates the structure, function, and organization of nervous tissue from the cellular through gross anatomic aspects including central, peripheral, and autonomic portions of the system.

Lecture/Lab. One lab a week. Structure and function of the human body. Anatomy of the skeletal and muscular systems, physiology of membranes, cellular and epithelial transport and nervous system function. Appropriate preparation for professional schools/graduate study in biological sciences.

Lecture and one lab a week. Continuation of BYS 313 stressing structural and functional relationships of major organ systems, focusing on heart, brain, lungs, kidney, and the gastrointestinal tract. Appropriate for students preparing for professional schools or graduate study in biological sciences.

Integrated study of human anatomy and physiology. Includes study of the structure cardiovascular, immune, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive (including nutrition), urinary development and genetics). Emphasis is on interrelationships among systems and lab provides a hands-on learning experience for exploration of human system components

Research-intensive system-based laboratory course. Includes brain dissection, a student EEG project, heart dissection, and a cardiovascular physiology project. This is followed by a pulmonary function lab and a renal function lab where students calculate their own glomerular filtration rate.

Laboratory activities on the basic concept of system physiology including a rat dissection. Focuses on membrane transport and histology, and include gross anatomy and a study of the muscles and bones of the human body. Capstone student research project on electromyography of muscles.

Detailed study of the anatomical and physiologic foundations for articulation & resonance, to include embryology, genetics, and foundations of the nervous system.
