Summary
Diseases mount the ultimate battle and challenge scientists to unlock the most complex puzzles of illness, disability and the body's response. Beginning with an overview of human anatomy and physiology, students will probe the nature of disease with new understandings of genetics, pathology and epidemiology. Case studies and presentations of current university research in stem cell therapy and pharmacological studies will complement hands-on laboratory studies.
