Course objectives
The aim of the course is to understand the structure of cells and tissues, interactions of cells and extracellular matrix, the morphology and functional relationships of the tissues in the organs and organ systems of the human body. The aim of the embryology is understanding basic developmental principles from fertilization to birth, development of individual body systems and some of the mechanisms leading to the origin of congenital defects.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course students should be able to:
1. Understand and explain the structure of a cell, basic structural principles and function of connective tissues, features of epithelial tissue, structure of different types of muscle tissue, structure and function of nervous tissue.
2. Identify tissue types in histologic slides.
3. Characterize microscopic structure of individual organs of human body and explain correlations of tissues within organs.
4. Describe gamete development, explain principle of meiosis and regulation of gametogenesis.
5. Define the early embryonic development as well as development of fetal membranes, placenta and umbilical cord.
6. Characterize stages of embryonic development, describe the development of individual organ systems of human body.
7. Explain the mechanism of the origin of some developmental anomalies.
