| Outline of Departmental Coursework During the first year of the medical curriculum, students receive instruction in human gross anatomy, embryology, histology, and cell biology. In gross anatomy, regional dissection of the human body is correlated with lectures and small-group sessions involving diagnostic, surgical and radiological applications material. Computerized, WEB-based teaching modules are used to facilitate the study of sectional anatomy as it relates to diagnostic MRI and CT images. Lectures in human embryology and congenital anomalies are correl with the gross anatomy topics. In the histology course, the microscopic structure of cells, tissues, and organs is presented, with emphasis on the correlation of structure and function. Current topics in cell biology are included as a basis for understanding cell function.
