This module is designed to review and build on your existing knowledge of basic physiology/human biology. We will be reviewing the major physiological systems and exploring the various mechanisms used to control and harmonise all the myriad body processes to achieve homeostasis. A good understanding of how these systems of control operate and integrate is vital to the Nutritional Science/Therapy and Personalised Nutrition.Â
Students who are required to complete the Human Biology (level 3) bioscience access course must successfully do so before starting this level 4 course.Â
