Learning objectives
At the end of the course, students have to be able to identify the microscopical morphology of cells and tissues, as well as to describe shape, position, structure and meaning of the main organs and systems. Furthermore, students have to acquire the main operating mechanisms of the cell and of the various systems. PHYSIOLOGY: Cellular physiology. The cell membrane. The action potential: generation and conduction. The synapse. Muscle contraction. Cardiovascular system physiology. Respiratory system physiology. Kidney physiology. Gastrointestinal system physiology. Endocrine glands physiology. Physiology of the musculoskeletal system HISTOLOGY: Study methods in Cytology and Histology. Cell structure. Coating and glandular epithelia. Connective tissues. Blood. Muscular and neural tissue. Musculoskeletal, circulatory, digestive, urinary and genital systems. Endocrine glands. Neural system. ANATOMY: Provide knowledge of functional and topographical anatomy of the musculoskeletal system: spine, pelvis, shoulder girdle, upper and lower limbs and ability to identify them. Concept of bone tissue and ossification. Muscle tissue concept. The skull general notions. The bones of the axial skeleton. Circulatory system overview. Heart. Respiratory system. Digestive system. General concepts of the neural system. Lymphatic system overview. The kidney. The adrenal gland. The thyroid
Prerequisites and basic notions
Access to the degree course is conditional on passing an admission test which aims to evaluate the scientific knowledge acquired by the individual during previous training courses. The course requires attendance and the achievement of the objectives presupposes a basic knowledge of biology, physiology and anatomy.

Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The evaluation of the teaching objectives involves verification through oral interviews for each individual module with the reference teacher. Each teacher will evaluate the knowledge achieved by each individual student regarding the program carried out and the scientific language used. Each teacher will assign a grade out of thirty with a minimum score of 18/30. The final grade will be calculated as a weighted average of the credits attributed to each individual module.
