Description
This two-week concentrated course, offered immediately prior to the first term for incoming students without adequate background or experience in the biomedical sciences, presents basic anatomy and physiology through a group learning process that utilizes selected reading assignments, explicit objectives, active group interaction reinforced by preceptors, and short objective tests with immediate feedback. Lectures focus on basic biologic principles relevant to the health of human populations.
Special Comments

Scheduled the last two weeks before August orientation activities. Registrants must indicate this course on their FIRST term registrations, NOT their summer registrations.
