This subject will build upon the basic and theoretical concepts taught in other physiology
subjects. Students will learn about the array of technologies and methods currently
employed in monitoring/quantitating physiological processes and the application of
these methods to solve physiological problems. The emphasis of this subject will be
on current research issues in physiology.
Learning Outcomes
- students will be able to describe a range of experimental methods suitable for
in vitro and in vivo research in physiology;
- students will be able to state the advantages and disadvantages of these experimental
methods;
- students will be able to choose an appropriate experimental method for the measurement
of particular physiological parameters;
- students will obtain hands-on experience in selected experimental physiological methods;
collect, analyse and interpret data in the context of the current physiological literature.
