Overview

This award has been designed to facilitate the learning of the generic
skills and knowledge essential to successful higher clinical practice
and careers in academic medicine by applying the principles of the
scientific method to studies in both anatomical research and clinically
applied anatomy. Anatomy encompasses all levels of structural
organisation, topographical, neuroanatomical, histological, cellular
and developmental, as well as providing a basis for studies in
radiological imaging and pathology. This approach allows students

microscopy, imaging and computer simulation to biological
and clinical problems concerning the human body.
