Clinical Anatomy

The objective of the integrated Human Gross Anatomy and Human Development course is to provide students with hand on experience in the study of the structure and function of the human body, an understanding of relevant aspects of human development and its abnormalities, and the value of imaging techniques in the visualization of the human body. Structure at the macroscopic level is explored through lectures in gross anatomy and embryology coupled with detailed regional dissections. Students are expected to examine anatomic relationships leading to an integration of anatomic function and embryo-fetal development under normal and pathologic conditions.
