The "Human Embryology" is a science that studies the normal human development as well as birth defects in the maternal uterus.
· Bridges the gap between prenatal development and obstetrics, perinatal medicine, pediatrics and clinical anatomy
· Develops knowledge concerning the beginning of life and the changes occurring during prenatal development
· Builds an understanding of the causes of variations in human structure
· Illuminates clinically oriented anatomy and explains how normal and abnormal relations develop
· Supports the research and application of stem cells for treatment of certain chronic diseases
Our better understanding of “Human Embryology” will result in new techniques for prenatal diagnosis and treatment, therapeutic procedures to circumvent problems with infertility, mechanisms to prevent birth defects and the leading cause of infant mortality.
