VETERINARY DEVELOPMENTAL ANATOMY
Principles of development and organogeneses in domestic animals. Normal developmental patterns are related to adult anatomy. Clinical implications of common congenital defects are discussed.
Prerequisites & course information
Requisites: Declared in Doctor of Veterinary Medicine with first year standing Repeatable for Credit: No Last Taught: Fall 2024 Learning Outcomes: 1. Illustrate how morphogenetic processes in development can explain common developmental defects and adult anatomic structures. Audience: Undergraduate 2. Organize adult cell types and anatomical structures to their embryonic cellular origins. Audience: Undergraduate 3. Predict effects of perturbing key molecular and cellular pathways on embryogenesis. Audience: Undergraduate 4. Given a clinical presentation of a developmental defect, propose a plausible molecular or cellular mechanism. Audience: Undergraduate 5. Explain the basis of presented molecular biology techniques and apply them appropriately to research and clinical scenarios Audience: Undergraduate 6. Apply the SVM problem solving paradigm to clinical scenarios and basic science questions presented in class. Audience: Undergraduate 7. Identify and critically evaluate primary veterinary literature to enhance your understanding of developmental anatomy concepts and their clinical implications.
