BIOS 503 - Histology

Students will study the chemical and molecular structure of the eukaryotic cell as well as its basic functions, with emphasis on cell membrane structure and function. Students will then apply the cellular level of biology to the study of tissues and their structure and function, exploring similarities and differences in the tissues that make up each of the body’s major systems. Tissue identification and identification of parts of tissues and organs at the microscopic level will be studied using slides presented during lectures and incorporated into the exams.
