This course is devoted to the study of the microscopic structure of cells, tissues, and organs of various systems of the human body. Emphasis will be placed on nervous, muscular, and skeletal tissues. Functions of cellular organelles will be introduced. Review of the material will be performed on a regular basis by examination of projected microscopic slides. The student will be expected to recognize cell type, internal and external structures, locations, and relationships to other cells and tissues. This course is the foundational course for many basic science and clinical courses. Relevant clinical correlations may be presented to enhance the discussion.
