Bioenvironmental Medicine

Overview

One of our aims is to establish the 21st century’s new preventive medicine, focusing on the health of next generation. Birth cohort study will lead us to the core of the issue about possible adverse effects of environmental factors.
The another aims of this module are to provide students with the knowledge and ability to explore and gain knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics. Students will learn to describe the structure and function of the major bones, joints, muscles and soft tissue structures of the lower limb, upper limb and trunk.
