BE 6003 - Principles of Biological Systems

Institution:

Polytechnic Institute of New York University

Subject:

Description:

Physiology is defined as the science that deals with the functions of the body. It logically follows, therefore, that a sound, comprehensive knowledge of human physiology should occupy a significant part of the academic training of personnel in medicine and related fields. The emphasis is on normal functions, but also considers the consequences of disease and injury, and deal with the body's potential for recovery and for compensation. Behavioral responses to environmental conditions are considered, but in this area our chief concern will be with the regulation and control of fundamental reflexes or neuro-endocrine mechanisms. Prerequisite: None, although some background of biochemistry and gross and cellular anatomy would be helpful. Co-listed as CM 9503. Prerequisite: None.
