| Course contents :
| After an introduction in which the terms "anatomy" and "physiology" are defined, as well as the methods used to study those topics, each major system is explained. So are successively studied the nervous, endocrine, cardio-vascular, respiratory, renal, digestive, and immune systems. The targets of the lectures being students in psychological and educational sciences, the endocrine and, mainly, the nervous system are more deeply studied. Therefore, the physiology of the neuron, the anatomy and physiology of the central, pheripheral, and autonomous nervous systems, and the mechanisms of nervous integration are analysed in details. | |
