Course objectives

Main objective of the subject is to combine programmed teaching of histology ana embryology that occupy a key position among subjects of the theoretical study on medical faculties. At the end of the course students should be able to: - in histology a) define basic terms and categories of the subject and apply used classification system in the praxis; b) describe and explain structure and function of animal cells on submicroscopic and molecular levels; c) describe and explain structural characteristics of epithels, connective and supporting tissues (incl. their function), muscle tissue including mechanism of muscle contraction and nerve tissue; d) identify basic tissues and main organs of the human body in histological slides; e) analyze the microscopic structure of organs under normal conditions and compare it with changes evoked with pathological changes or alterations; f) understand existing close interrelations between structure and function of individual tissues and organs of the human body; - in embryology: 1) explain the development of gametes, meiosis principle and regulation processes during gametogenesis; 2) discuss main developmental processes and genetic controle of development; 3) describe early development of the human embryo incl. development of extraembryonic structures; 4) categorize phases of prenatal development and characterize key developmental stages of individual organ systems.
