AbstractPractical at the light microscope based on the lectures "Anatomie" 1+2 with an introduction in histological techniques. In the first part participants study examples of epithelia, connective and supporting tissues, muscle and nervous tissue. The second part is devoted to the microscopic anatomy of selected organs.
Learning objectiveBy working with the microscope, participants gain a deeper understating of the lecture topics, in particular in microscopic anatomy. They acquire the ability to examine tissue sections with the microscope, to recognize organ-typical structures and to identify the organ of origin.

AbstractIntroduction into the histology and anatomy of the human body, including the musculoskeletal, cardio-respiratory, digestive, endocrine, urinary, reproductive systems, as well as the nervous system and sensory organs.
Learning objectiveStudents acquire basic knowledge of the micro- and macro structure of the organ systems in the human body. They understand basic concepts of the relationship between structure and function, and - based on examples - of the relationship between structural changes and disease.
