Course Content
The curriculum consists of required core courses (Anatomy, Physiology, Medical Biochemistry, Histology and Embryology, Biophysics, and Clinical Medicine) and elective courses. Theoretical courses are taught in semester-long classrooms with full student participation. Practical sessions are held in the Anatomy Model Room and the Basic Medical Sciences Laboratories.
Objectives of the Course
In the course;
• To provide basic knowledge about the normal microscopic and macroscopic structure and functions of muscle structures and to reinforce this knowledge with fundamental clinical information;
• To enable students to identify all muscles of the musculoskeletal system macroscopically (anatomically), determine their locations and functions, and, at the microscopic level, distinguish between a nerve cell and a muscle cell as well as the different tissues formed by these cells;
• To be able to describe the functions of muscles using knowledge of physiology, biophysics, and biochemistry;
• To teach students about pathogenic microorganisms and elements of the normal flora; the mechanisms of action and resistance of antibiotics; and methods for culturing microorganisms.
