The teaching is organized as follows:
Learning outcomes
L’insegnamento si propone di fornire le conoscenze di scienze di base quali istologia, anatomia e fisiologia, pre-requisito per ulteriori approfondimenti specialistici che saranno oggetto degli insegnamenti successivi; l’obiettivo è di fare apprendere agli Studenti l’organizzazione morfologica e strutturale della cellula e dei tessuti, e la conoscenza sullo sviluppo dell’embrione umano. Verranno inoltre trattate l’architettura e la morfologia anatomica di organi, sistemi ed apparati e del significato funzionale della loro organizzazione complessiva nel corpo umano; saranno inoltre fornite le basi per la comprensione dell'organizzazione generale del corpo umano, il funzionamento dei diversi organi e la loro integrazione dinamica in apparati.
Modulo Istologia ed embriologia: Il corso si propone l’obiettivo di far apprendere agli Studenti l’organizzazione morfologica e strutturale della cellula e dei tessuti, e la conoscenza sullo sviluppo dell’embrione umano. Al termine del corso lo Studente dovrà essere in grado di: riconoscere e descrivere dal punto di vista strutturale la cellula, assegnando a ciascuna componente la sua specifica funzione; comprendere il concetto di differenziamento cellulare e correlare le differenze morfologiche e strutturali dei diversi tipi cellulari con le rispettive attività funzionali; riconoscere e descrivere i principali tessuti dell’organismo umano, enfatizzando la comprensione del significato funzionale di ciascun aspetto morfologico osservato; descrivere le principali fasi della gametogenesi, della fecondazione, e delle prime quattro settimane di gestazione dell’embrione.
Modulo Anatomia umana: Il corso è finalizzato all’apprendimento da parte dello Studente dell’architettura e morfologia anatomica di organi, sistemi ed apparati e del significato funzionale della loro organizzazione complessiva nel corpo umano. Una buona conoscenza dell'anatomia topografica e delle caratteristiche morfologiche macroscopiche e microscopiche di ogni apparato.
Modulo Fisiologia umana: Il corso fornisce le basi per la comprensione dell'organizzazione generale del corpo umano. Lo Studente deve conoscere le modalità di funzionamento dei diversi organi, l’integrazione dinamica degli organi in apparati e i meccanismi generali di controllo funzionale in condizioni normali.

Examination Methods
------------------------
MM: ISTOLOGIA ED EMBRIOLOGIA
------------------------
The exam is written and includes the use of multiple choice questions (5 replies to each question of which only one is correct). The questions are 20 For each correct question it is assigned a point and there are no penalties for wrong answer. Half of correct questions determines sufficiency. In case of doubt in the preparation of the candidate, the teacher can convoke the student and check his preparation orally.

MM: ANATOMIA UMANA
------------------------
The exam includes: A) a written test, with multiple-answer questions (5 replies for each question of which only one is correct). The questions are in the number of 30, broken down by the three teachings of histology, human anatomy and human physiology. In order to pass the test it is necessary to respond correctly to 18 questions out of 30. Each correct question is given a point and there is no penalty in the case of a wrong answer. B. An oral test, to which you have access only if you pass the written."
