After having completed the course successfully, the student will have knowledge that can be applied in further biomedical studies and research projects.

Learning outcome

After having completed the course the student should have an important basic knowledge regarding human anatomy and physiology, and how this knowledge can be useful when one is considering biomedical issues. Knowledge regarding the organ’s and body’s anatomical structures and their fysiological and biochemical prosesses, so the body can function as one unit.

  • understanding the structure and function of cells and tissues
  • state the principles of homeostasis within and between tissues, organs and bodyfunctions
  • understand the composition and functions of blood
  • know the structure and function of the heart, cardiovascular and respiratory system
  • know the principles of acid-base balance, immune system and temperature-regulation of the human body
  • have an understanding of the human nervous system and special senses
  • understand the priciples concerning endocrinology
  • understand the principles concerning digestion, nutrition and the urinary system
  • know the structure and function of bones, joints, skeletal and musculary system
