BIO 372 Histology 4.0 Credits

This course is designed to give students an understanding of the established fundamentals and principles of histology. Histology lies at the interface between cell biology and physiology: here we examine how cells work together as tissues and organs to create a functional pump (the heart), filters (the kidneys), and bellows (the lungs). While considerable focus will be on the structural details of select systems, there are recurring patterns that emerge in tissue construction. These patterns reflect regional variations in the functional role of the assembled tissue; studying these principles offers us a view of how small differences in cell number, type, and interaction can lead to the wide variety of tissue/organ properties seen in the human body.
