Medical Cell and Tissue Biology

Medical Cell and Tissue Biology - Fall (BMS 6110C)

The MCTB course is designed to teach the microscopic structure and function of human cells, tissues and organs. Correlations between structures and functions at the cellular and molecular levels are taught in lectures, laboratory sessions, and small group discussions. The application of course content to clinical scenarios is emphasized.
