Learning outcomes
|
The course extends the basic knowledge and skills acquired by students in the study of Biophysics I. The course explains the biophysical principles of physiological processes of the human body (molecular biophysics, cell and tissue biophysics), its function (biophysics of perception, organ biophysics) and its interaction with external environment with respect to investigative and measuring methods for rehabilitation and physiotherapy purposes.
Students will be able to understand the basic biophysical processes of the human body and will be able to work with basic medical devices.
