Overview

     Physiology, which studies the activities of the human body and its components, is an important basic course in medicine and a mandatory subject for clinical medicine graduate students examination.

    It is based on morphology courses such as anatomy and Embryology, and it is also the basis of pharmacology and Pathophysiology. It is a course for medical students to learn from morphology to functional subjects. Through learning, students will be able to explain the basic concepts of physiology, describe the basic functional activity rules and influencing factors of various organs and systems of the human body, understand the significance of various Organ system in the overall activities, and be able to use physiological knowledge to explain some phenomena of life activities.

    This course consists of 12 chapters, 94 videos which lasting 720 minutes in all. Each video guides students to learn from questions or cases, expresses basic knowledge of physiology in simple  terms. At the end of each video is summary  or questions to  prompt students to think deeply.
