Medical Anatomy II is the study of the body's structure, including the nervous system. The course is organized according to the major body regions: lower limb and head and neck. This includes the functional anatomy of somatosensory modalities and motor control, parts of the brain, special senses, the limbic system, and the autonomic nervous system in the head and neck. Laboratory dissections of whole-body anatomical donors will be performed throughout the entire course. Supplemental lectures and tutorials will also be given. Throughout the course students will be challenged to relate the anatomy to solving clinical problems. The latter is an integral part of the anatomy curriculum.
