This course provides an essential foundation in the structure and development of the human body. It introduces students to the fundamental principles of anatomy and embryology, emphasizing the correlation between microscopic, gross, and developmental anatomy. Learners explore the organization of the human body from the cellular level to complex organ systems, integrating theoretical knowledge with practical experiences in histology and dissection laboratories. The embryology component traces human development from gametogenesis, fertilization, and implantation to the formation of tissues and organs during the early weeks of development. Through interactive sessions, laboratory observations, and case-based learning, students develop a comprehensive understanding of human form and function, preparing them for advanced biomedical and clinical courses.
