With humans as our primary model system, we will cover cellular and general tissue physiology and the endocrine, nervous, muscular, cardiovascular, reproductive, respiratory, and renal organ systems. Primary emphasis is on functional processes in these systems. A focus will be on cellular and molecular mechanisms common across systems. Students will engage in class problems, lectures, and reading of textbook literature. Basic knowledge of and comfort with biology, chemistry and math is necessary. Keywords:biology, health, science, anatomy
