Human Anatomy and Physiology Lab

The Human Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory is a dedicated space that supports the two semester Human Anatomy and Physiology course (EX126 & EX127), as well as related 课程(e.g. EX115, EX314, etc.). This 实验室oratory facilitates study of anatomy in the bodily systems using various models, the dissection of specimens, and with cutting edge technology to study virtual human cadavers, using online software and with a 55” Sectra interactive display capable of virtual human cadaver dissection.  Additionally, the 实验室 also has the capacity for investigation of physiological functionality through experimentation using Biopac Student Lab data acquisition units, which can measure cardiovascular, muscular, pulmonary, neural responses.
