In second semester of first year our systems approach commences with MED1062, a study of the musculoskeletal system which presents an integrated account of the anatomy of the upper and lower limbs and the back, the physiology of skeletal muscle and the biochemistry of bone and other connective tissues. MED1052 (Cell and molecular biology II) extends teaching at the cellular and subcellular level. The teaching in both these basic sciences is concurrently reinforced by introductory clinical contact in sports medicine and rehabilitation and psychosocial aspects of diseases of the the mulsculoskeletal system in MED1042 (Health, illness and human behaviour II). Students also undertake MED1072 (Options) during second semester.
