Learning outcomes

The objectives of the course are
• to provide to the students essential knowledge on the structure and function of the cell as well as of tissues which compose the organs of the human body
• familiarize the students with themes concerning cells and tissues as basis for subsequent courses of the normal and pathological structure and functions of the human body

Program
