PASP 507 Pathophysiology II

This second course in a two-course series provides pathophysiological mechanisms (including genetic/chromosomal and molecular mechanisms) of disease and their clinical manifestations as these concepts apply to the practice of medicine across the life span. Content is delivered via lecture discussion format. During this semester the cardiovascular, pulmonary, eyes, ears, nose and throat (EENT), gastrointestinal, renal, male genitourinary, and female genitourinary (including breast) systems are covered. Diseases are selected for study based on their importance in clinical medicine, demonstration of principles of pathophysiology, and their relevance as a representative of a group of diseases.
