Advanced Cardiac Physiology and Anatomy Course

The Department of Integrative Biology and Physiology at the University of Minnesota Medical School offers a series of courses designed for individuals working in Industry, people in postdoctoral training programs, or graduate students. Qualified undergraduates may also enroll (Physiology or BME advanced students). These intensive courses are all day ranging from 3-5 days. They provide an up-to-date survey of organ system physiology with anatomical dissections that will be invaluable for individuals who work in areas that involve human body function.
