Topic

Since the second part of 20th century many publications interested in a novel issue, that all biologically relevant questions should be answered if we consider as a stage of a developmental process (Richardson et al. 2002, Hall, B. K. 2003, Held et al. 2014). Means the begining of a new science the Evolutionary-Developmental Biology (EVO-DEVO) recently the most developping part of Biology, involves all modern innovations and methods to study genetical, epigenetical regulations and system based thinking about the varieties of gene and cell functions. The aim of this course to introduce the EVO-DEVO to medical students by the description of cytoskeleton and muscular system development and their clinical relevance. Can be a help to extend the perspective and problem solving skills of medical students in their studies and routine. The evolutionary plasticity of stages in different phylogenetical development and their clinically interesting motional and cytoskeletal role will be reviewed during this course.

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

Maximum of 25 % absence allowed

Mid-term exams

The grade is based on the written test on 12th week, can participate if the number of absences are less then 25%. Students will set in three groups A, B, C and all groups will briefly describe different topics from the list.

Making up for missed classes

No need make up classes. In case of more than 25 % absences students need to register up this course again.
