System-Specific Embryology with John McLachlan

By John McLachlan, PhD

During embryogenesis, the cells that will eventually become the different organs and tissues belonging to various organ systems develop almost in tandem, at different weeks of gestation. To understand the diseases affecting a specific organ or tract, it serves to study the embryology of each organ system.

In this course, the student will be introduced to the development of the major structures of each organ system. Throughout the course, diseases arising from developmental processes going awry will be discussed.

For optimal comprehension, the student will be required to have preliminary knowledge of molecular and cellular biology and biochemistry, with an emphasis on cell division and gene expression. Parallel study of the anatomy and physiology of the major organs and structures mentioned in the course is highly encouraged.

Format counts

By Ruth W. on 01. September 2022 for Tetralogy of Fallot – Blood Vessel and Heart Abnormalities

Lordy, where is this marvelous accent from? I can listen again and again.

What Can Make or Break a Lecture

By Ruth W. on 01. September 2022 for Lung Agenesis – Lung Development

A delightful accent also counts to grab one's attention. Many factors matter in a presentation style.

Very well explained

By NAME L. on 14. July 2021 for System-Specific Embryology with John McLachlan

General and systemic embryology very well explained. Chambers of the heart, formation of septums very well explained.

Amazing animation!

By Sarunas D. on 10. July 2021 for Septation of the Heart – Blood Vessel and Heart Development

The animation here is amazing. After many attempts at understanding the septum primum/secundum, etc. I finally get it. Thank you!
