Principals of Biomedical Science
Course description
Students will investigate concepts of biology and medicine as they explore health conditions including heart disease, diabetes, sickle-cell disease, Hypercholesterolemia, and infectious diseases. They will determine the factors that led to the death of a fictional woman as they sequentially piece together evidence found in her medical history and autopsy report . Students will investigate life style choices and medical treatments that might have prolonged the woman's life and demonstrate how the development of diseases is related to changes in the human body system The activities and projects introduces students to human physiology, basic biology,medicine, and research processes and allow .students to design experiments to solve problems
