AUD-7132 Cell and Molecular Processes
This course introduces the students to a number of fundamental mechanisms that govern cellular metabolism, basic histological characteristics of the four tissue types of the human body and basic physiological properties common to all cell types. These sections also include some limited examples of regulatory breakdown or pathology and clinical correlates. The goal is to provide the student with sufficient understanding of normal cellular and tissue organization and function to facilitate the recognition and understanding of the mechanisms that underlie both normal and disease processes covered in subsequent courses.
