This is the first semester of a 2 semester course. This full year sequence will give the student a working, hands-on understanding of the form (anatomy) and function (physiology) of the healthy human body. Topics will span all levels of structure from the cellular to the organismal, but the main concentration will be on the workings of the major organ systems.
