IBS 603 - Integrated Biomedical Sciences III


Course Description: This is the third course in a two-year series of courses taken by OMS I and OMS II students. Students apply the foundational sciences in medicine, including anatomy, physiology, microbiology, immunology, pharmacology, embryology, biochemistry, and pathology. The patient presentation model guides students in making connections between the structural and functional foundations of health and wellness. Students examine the differences between health and disease, symptoms, and causative or diagnostic schemas, all within the framework of osteopathic medicine. Each progressive course covers new and additional organ systems and patient presentations and cases, all building on the knowledge acquired in earlier terms to prepare students for competent entry to practice.
