BMSC.4510 Advanced Pathophysiology
Id: 042946 Credits: 3-3Description
This course provides an advanced, clinically oriented study of the mechanisms of human disease, with emphasis on the integration of molecular, cellular, histological, and organ-system dysfunction. Students will examine how structural and microscopic tissue changes contribute to disease development, progression, and clinical manifestation across major organ systems. The course incorporates analysis of representative histological features of disease to reinforce structure-function relationships and to support student preparation for advanced laboratory and diagnostic training. Pathophysiologic principles are applied through case-based learning and interpretation of clinical and diagnostic scenarios.
