General Physiology Course
This course builds expertise in general physiology using fish models. It covers maintaining homeostasis under temperature and oxygen stress, functions of gill, kidney, cardiovascular and nervous systems, feedback mechanisms, and stress hormones. Participants learn to design experiments, choose model species, gather data with simple tools, and draw evidence-based conclusions, applying concepts to practical biological science.

What will I learn?
Gain a practical overview of animal physiology focusing on homeostasis during temperature and oxygen challenges. Study gill, cardiovascular, excretory, and nervous systems, feedback controls, and stress hormones. Master designing experiments, selecting freshwater model species, using basic lab equipment for data collection, and analysing results for solid, evidence-driven insights.
