Course Description
Pathophysiology is one of the bridge courses between basic medical science and clinical medicine: it plays an important role in basic medical courses, concerning the etiology and pathogenesis of disease as well as the mechanisms of functional and metabolic alterations in disease. Different from pathology, which emphasizes the morphological changes, pathophysiology focuses on the functional and metabolic alterations and mechanisms underlying the development of diseases. This discussion- and presentation-based course will focus on developing written and oral communication skills through the use of case studies.
