The goal | Connecting morpho-functional characteristics of the cell and tissue types of disorders that occur in them | |||
The outcome | The student should understand the relationship between structure and function of appropriate types of cells and tissues as well as the mechanisms of formation and type of disorder that can develop in them. You must be aware of the basic control mechanisms involved in regulating the activity of cells and tissues in normal and pathological conditions. The student should also consider the dependence of the change of the molecular to the macroscopic level in certain types of disorders in organ functions. | |||
