Learning objectives
The course aims to provide students with basic knowledge on:
· the concept of human homeostasis at the molecular, cellular and tissue level and the mechanisms aimed at maintaining homeostasis, in the context of the modifications of the surrounding environment
· the principles of sensorimotor physiology
· the neurobiological and psychophysiological concepts related to behavior and interactions between the subject and the environment
· the biological processes at the molecular level, the structure, properties and functions of biomolecules.
· the biochemistry of pathological states
· the human systematic biochemistry
· the molecular and cellular biology
· the morphological characteristics of the systems, apparatuses, organs, tissues of the human organism, as well as their main morpho-functional correlates
· the functional characteristics of the human organs, their dynamic integration into apparatus and the general control mechanisms
Expected learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student will have to know:
· the concept of human homeostasis at the molecular, cellular and tissue level and the bases of its mainteinance, in the context of the modifications of the surrounding environment
· the general principles of sensorimotor physiology
· the fundamental neurobiological and psychophysiological concepts related to behavior and interactions between the subject and the environment
· the biological processes at the molecular level, the structure, properties and functions of biomolecules.
· the biochemical bases of pathological states
· the bases of human systematic biochemistry
· the bases of molecular and cellular biology
· the main morphological characteristics of the systems, apparatuses, organs, tissues of the human organism, as well as their main morpho-functional correlates
· the general functional characteristics of the human organs, their dynamic integration into apparatus and the general control mechanisms
