Human Physiology - Practice

Data

Official data in SubjectManager for the following academic year: 2025-2026

Topic

The goal of the course is to disclose human physiological processes to the students. By means of the knowledge of complex human physiological processes the biotechnology students will also learn the interconnections and mutual influences of physiological systems and they will utilize their knowledge in planning and executing related animal model experiments and pharmaceutical tests.
