Anatomy Physiopathology II

The fundamental subjects are aimed at people with little scientific, medical or paramedical training, and who need to know the fundamental bases of anatomy, physiology, pathologies and etiological principles.
To properly assimilate the material, the student must take the necessary time by studying one chapter at a time, in parallel with the other courses of the program. This anatomy-physiopathology course consists of two teaching manuals and this is the second.
