HAP 509 - Integrative Systems Physiology
Introduces students to human integrative systems physiology. Includes exposure to physiological control systems, emphasizes in detail each organ system and how homeostasis is maintained. Includes membrane, muscle, central and peripheral nervous system, cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, gastrointestinal, and endocrine physiology. Presents material and incorporates select examples of pathophysiology to emphasize relevance of material. Students will solidify an understanding of the structures and functions across all systems in the human body under normal conditions and select pathophysiology. Knowledge gained of normal function will be applied towards making predictions about physiologic function in response to disease states. Students are expected to gain a cumulative understanding of physiologic function and are challenged to apply this knowledge towards problem solving and interpreting physiologic scenarios.
