The syllabus for an M.Sc. in Medical Physiology is designed to provide students with a deep and comprehensive understanding of the physiological processes within the human body. This advanced program delves into various key areas, including the advanced physiology of the nervous system. This involves an in-depth exploration of cellular processes within neurons, synaptic transmission, and the functioning of both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Additionally, students study the autonomic nervous system, as well as sensory and motor pathways. Another crucial area covered in the syllabus is cardiovascular physiology. This entails an examination of cardiac electrophysiology, the intricacies of cardiac output and hemodynamics, and the mechanisms behind blood pressure regulation. Students also delve into cardiovascular reflexes and the regulation of blood flow, gaining a thorough understanding of the circulatory system's functioning.
Respiratory physiology is another significant component of the curriculum. This involves studying the mechanics of breathing, pulmonary ventilation, gas exchange, and transport. Additionally, students explore the complex mechanisms that govern the control of respiration, delving into the processes that ensure optimal oxygenation of the body's tissues.
