Course content
The discipline "Physiology of nerves and muscles" is a basic physiological discipline that studies the laws of evolution, structural organization and functioning of neurons, nerve and muscle fibers, mechanisms of synaptic transmission of excitation between them. muscle cells, general mechanisms of excitation and its intercellular transmission, organization and functioning of the contractile apparatus of muscle cells, pathological processes that occur in the defeat of the nervous and muscular systems.This discipline is taught in the amount of 90 hours. modules and 2 modular tests. The discipline ends with an exam.
Knowledge gained from the discipline "Physiology of Nerves and Muscles" can be applied both in research in physiological sciences (physiology of sensory systems, physiology of blood circulation, physiology of digestion, physiology of work and sports, etc.), and in other sciences (pharmacology; ecological physiology, psychology, zoopsychology, etc.).
