- Course objectives
- The goal of Physiology is to explain how the human organism works, from molecular interactions to organ systems and their regulation.
- Learning outcomes
- At the succesfully end of the course Physiology - at the level of its study field, the student will be able to ;
describe basic functions of the human body - from cells, individual tissues, organs, systems and organism as a whole ;
explain the basic types of regulation in the human organism ;
determine the basic numerical parameters of a healthy adult human;
to apply basic physiological principles to the clinical problems of their study field - Syllabus
- Introduce to Physiology, the cell (membranous structure of the cell, organelles, morphology and function), transport of substrates through the cell, membrane potentials, resting membrane potential, and action potential;
- Morphology and function of spinal cord, medulla oblongata, cerebellum, basal ganglia, cortex. The highest function of nervous system, learning, memory, sleeping. Physiology of the sensory system;
- Respiration (mechanics of pulmonary ventilation, pulmonary volumes and capacities, transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood and body fluids). Regulation of respiration. Hypoxia;
