This course promotes the construction of knowledge to put into effect the scientific method in basic, clinical, and epidemiological research, as well as the competencies to develop research protocols according to methodological, ethical, and regulatory guidelines. Construction of a research protocol begins.

The aim of this course is for students to (1) Understand the structure and functions of the essential components of the organism (water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, nucleic acids, and vitamins) and the cellular metabolic mechanisms that lead to energy production, as well as their application in medicine. (2) Analyze the metabolic processes of the human organism, their interrelations, regulatory mechanisms, and alterations.

The aim of this course is for students to apply their knowledge of physiology to live and/or simulated models, using the scientific method in the development of experimental protocols.

This course aims to analyze the functioning of the cardiovascular, renal, respiratory, and digestive systems, their physical-chemical principles and their regulatory mechanism; as well as the interrelation that exists amog them.

This course aims to analyze the functioning of the nervous, endocrine, and reproductive systems, as well as the sensory organs, their physical-chemical principles and regulatory mechanisms; as well as the interrelation that exists among them.

The aim of this course is for students to understand  dental public health, epidemiology, and the relation that is established between health and disease,  understanding this process as a dynamic process that translates into clinical manifestations.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to apply theoretical knowledge of General Pharmacology and of the special Pharmacology of substances that act upon the nervous and cardiovascular systems and on the kidneys and blood, as well as of analgesics and cellular mediators, for the appropriate therapeutic application of medications in the clinical practice. They will apply the bases of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics to identify the actions, effects, indications, contraindications, and adverse effects of drugs.

The aim of this course is for students to apply their knowledge of the physiology of the nervous system, endocrine system, and digestive system to live and/or simulated models, using the scientific method in the development of experimental protocols.

The aim of this course is to analyze the functioning of the nervous system, endocrine system, and digestive system, their physical-chemical principles and regulatory mechanisms; as well as the interrelation that exists among them.
