Course description |
For understanding life phenomena,We need to understand individual units like gene, protein, cell, organ and body. The aim of this course is to understand biology of the human body as cell, internal organ and body the following disease progression and health. The students will learn about the human whole body system related with each organ functions and key factors. |
