  • BIO 3017: Prin. of Med. Pharmacology

    4.00 Credits
    Lincoln University of Pennsylvania

    Principles of Medical Pharmacology will cover the concepts of pharmacological sciences as they relate to biochemistry, cell biology, and drug therapy. In general, Pharmacology is the study of how drugs act in biological systems to affect their function. It is the study of how the body reacts to drugs. This field is usually referred to as the marriage between chemistry and biology. At the end of this course, you should be familiar with the principles behind drug action and development, dose-response relationships, pharmacodynamics, and pharmacokinetics.

  • BIO 4008: Human Anatomy

    4.00 Credits
    Lincoln University of Pennsylvania

    This course is intended for students who desire to pursue medical, dental, pharmacy, and other health professional degrees and graduate degrees in anatomy. This course presents a systemic approach to the study of the human body. Lecture presentation begins with an introduction of anatomical terminology and an overview of cellular processes and tissue classification. Students then learn the gross and microscopic anatomy of the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive, Case studies will be used so that students can solve complex medical problems in anatomy. The laboratory component of the course generally parallels and reinforces lecture concepts through the use of preserved specimens, models, histological slides, skeletal materials, and virtual cadaver demonstration. Students will also gain practical experience in the simulation lab in the nursing department. The lecture and lab will be integrated in two 3-hour time blocks each week.
