Content

Human Anatomy is a second year unit designed to educate students on the structure of the human body beginning with the general body plan laid down in embryogenesis to the development of organ systems and how these are organized to form the adult body. The unit is structured to expand upon the foundations of human structure and function previously covered in HBS109. All major anatomical systems and compartments will be discussed and class material will be supported by practical sessions.
