This course covers neural, neuro-muscular, endocrine, cardiovascular, renal-osmoregulatory physiology and relevant anatomy.
Human and Comparative Physiology is our 3000 level mammalian physiology course with laboratory component. Labs are weekly (4 hours) and use living tissue to explore neural, cardiovascular, muscular, and regulatory fundamentals.
Rigorous lab reports significantly benefit student improvement in scientific research, writing and communication. This course covers neural, neuro-muscular, endocrine, cardiovascular, renal-osmoregulatory physiology and relevant anatomy.
This course is human focused but uses comparative approaches (e.g. understanding the anatomy of the human heart is facilitated by comparison with fish, amphibian and reptilian hearts and circulatory pathways).
This course is open to our Honours program students and students in other programs with the prerequisites (space permitting).
