Stage 1 ( development, homeostasis

[Guest SaraKJ]

Hello all,

the first block is about development and Homeostasis. I was wondering what is the topic of development. Is it the same as embryology or mostly cellular level ( i.e cell division, transcription, and so on)

Thanks

both of the above!

 

there will be some embryology, cell biology, molecular biology, biochemistry along with general neuro/cardiovascular/GI anatomy and some other good stuff tossed in

Hey guys,

 

I've taken the liberty to cut and paste from the online resources to give you an idea of your classes for the first 3 weeks of the first block in Development and Homeostasis. I always looked forward to knowing what I was going to learn about . This may be last year's schedule of courses, but it gives you a good idea of what topics you'll cover.

 

Have fun!
