About The CourseWelcome to the CoursePlus Web site for FUNDAMENTALS OF HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY (183.631.01), a course offered by the Department of Environmental Health Sciences at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health.
Encompasses the integration of a variety of organ systems. Invites leading scientists in different fields of physiology to offer exceptional and up-to-date lectures that quickly move through the basic mechanistic principles. Applies basic mechanistic principles of each organ system to current public health issues and environmentally relevant topics.
Upon successfully completing this course, students will be able to:
- Use their discuss of functional principles at the genetic, cellular and organ levels to describe the concepts of integrated systems physiology in humans
- Apply these basic physiological principles to strategies for the solution of current and emerging relevant environmental health issues
- Explain and discuss the significance of these principles in interaction with a broad spectrum of public health professionals
