This course will extend upon 2012PES Integrated Systems Physiology by exploring the aetiology of disease and the effects of chronic homeostasis disruption on systems physiology/function and structure. Analysis from the cell to the organism will be covered documenting relevant tests that are performed to assess the type and degree of homeostatic imbalance, which ultimately describes the pathophysiological state. This course will first describe the fundamental causes of disease (general pathology) and apply that knowledge to understanding the development of common diseases affecting body systems (systemic pathology) including, but not limited to, cancers, hepatic, pulmonary, cardiovascular... -- Course Website
