Content
The unit will focus on integrating concepts and applying understanding to various clinical and functional scenarios through a series of case studies. This will allow students to develop critical awareness of biomedical concepts and the ability to exercise independent and scientifically justified views. As part of their scientific skills training students will work in a team to design and complete their own research project centred on a fundamental physiology concept. Students will design, conduct, analyse and present the outcomes of their project at an end of unit conference allowing them to showcase and communicate their findings to an audience.
