Learning Outcomes
1 - Knowledge
Theoretical - Conceptual
1) To understand the role of physics concepts and laws in the processes that occur in biological systems and to develop the ability to explain these processes with physical science concepts and laws To understand the applications of physical models in understanding biological processes, and ultimately to raise awareness of the fact that the processes occurring in living systems can also be understood with the laws of physics and models valid for inanimate matter. To adopt the importance of new technologies produced as a result of scientific developments in the learning of biological systems, to obtain knowledge about the use of these technologies in medical applications.
