Course objectives
This newly introduced subject focuses on overview exercising of substantial problems from the point of view of anatomist, embryologist, physiologist, pathological physiologist, pathologist, microbiologist, immunologist and finally, corresponding clinician. Using this approach we will conceptually approach closer to the strategy of USMLE, Step 1.
Learning outcomes
Students will be able to: - understand and explain the basic concepts of regeneration and repair of human tissues. - understand the term stem cell and understand its role in the wound healing process. - focus on the issue of calcium metabolism in the human body, its importance and regulation of its level in the body. - list and explain the principle of laboratory examinations used in monitoring calcium metabolism.
