fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
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;
  • Blood cells, immunity, blood clothing;
  • Gastrointestinal system - morphology and function (mechanic and secretory), coordination, metabolism of substrates. Nutrition in man.
