Medical School Anatomy and Physiology I

Build a rigorous anatomy and physiology foundation for medicine, PA, and NP training through a clinically grounded approach focused on reasoning rather than memorization. The program covers the body at the depth of medical school foundational coursework. You begin with anatomical terminology, homeostasis, membrane transport, and acid-base balance, then move through neuroanatomy and neurophysiology, the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, and endocrine regulation. A patient-case project asks you to identify affected structures, explain physiological mechanisms, and practice clinical reasoning. You will trace spinal cord and brainstem pathways and localize lesions from the deficits they cause, read an ECG and explain the electrical events behind each waveform, and work through the determinants of cardiac output, the causes of hypoxemia, and the feedback loops governing thyroid, adrenal, and pancreatic hormones. Clinical correlations appear in every course, from Parkinson's disease and Brown-Séquard syndrome to atrioventricular block, altitude sickness, and renal tubular acidosis. Lessons are taught by physician and PhD faculty and organized so each system builds on the principles established before it. No prior experience is required, though the depth matches medical coursework. Whether you are pursuing an MD, DO, PA, or NP program or simply want a rigorous account of the body, this is a thorough place to begin.
