Learning Outcomes of UE

Students will master the functioning of 3 major systems and their integration in the human being: the cardiovascular, respiratory and urinary systems. After normal functioning, malfunction of organs will be considered. The final goal is to enable students to understand the functional consequences of a disorder or of its treatment.

Content of UE

Systems will be studied separately and theoretical notions will be integrated during practical work.

Prior Experience

General physiology.
