The aim of this course is for students to understand  dental public health, epidemiology, and the relation that is established between health and disease,  understanding this process as a dynamic process that translates into clinical manifestations.

Upon completion of this course, students will be able to apply theoretical knowledge of General Pharmacology and of the special Pharmacology of substances that act upon the nervous and cardiovascular systems and on the kidneys and blood, as well as of analgesics and cellular mediators, for the appropriate therapeutic application of medications in the clinical practice. They will apply the bases of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics to identify the actions, effects, indications, contraindications, and adverse effects of drugs.

The aim of this course is for students to apply their knowledge of the physiology of the nervous system, endocrine system, and digestive system to live and/or simulated models, using the scientific method in the development of experimental protocols.

The aim of this course is to analyze the functioning of the nervous system, endocrine system, and digestive system, their physical-chemical principles and regulatory mechanisms; as well as the interrelation that exists among them.

The aim of this course is for students to apply their knowledge of the physiology of the cardiovascular system, renal system, and respiratory system on live and/or simulated models, using the scientific method in the development of experimental protocols.

The aim of this course is to analyze the functioning of the cardiovascular system, renal system, respiratory system, and digestive system, their physical-chemical principles, regulatory mechanisms; as well as the interrelation existing among them.

This course aims to analyze the metabolic processes of the human body, their interrelations, their regulatory mechanisms, their alterations and their implications in medicine.

The aim of this course is for students to understand the structure and functions of the essential components of the organism (water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, nucleic acids, and vitamins) and the cellular metabolic mechanisms that lead to energy production, as well as their application in medicine.

The aim of this course is for students to: (1) Learn to select the most appropriate statistical method to solve major problems that come up when doing research work in nutrition and the health sciences. (2) Learn and be able to apply and interpret the main statistical tests for the comparison of means and proportions, including parametric and nonparametric procedures, matched or independent designs. (3) Acquire skills in the use of statistical programs for data analysis and result presentation.
