Learning outcomes |
At the end of the UC students will be able to describe the organs and structures associated with the
immune, cardio respiratory, digestive, nefrourinário, reproductive, endocrine and metabolic systems,
identify their embryological origins and recognize the anatomical and functional relationships between
them; understand the physiology and functional aspects relate to the anatomical and histological
characteristics; perform procedures for assessing physiological functions; demonstrate ability to work
in groups; synthesize information and communicate with colleagues as appropriate; providing
counselling on disease prevention measures associated with these systems; demonstrate attitudes
appropriate to the exercise of the medical profession.
