The "Human Embryology" is a science that studies the normal human development as well as birth defects in the maternal uterus.
Bridges the gap between prenatal development and obstetrics, perinatal medicine, pediatrics and clinical anatomy
Develops knowledge concerning the beginning of life and the changes occurring during prenatal development
Builds an understanding of the causes of variations in human structure
Illuminates clinically oriented anatomy and explains how normal and abnormal relations develop
Supports the research and application of stem cells for treatment of certain chronic diseases
Our better understanding of “Human Embryology” will result in new techniques for prenatal diagnosis and treatment, therapeutic procedures to circumvent problems with infertility, mechanisms to prevent birth defects and the leading cause of infant mortality.
“Human Embryology” helps students understand
(1) how the gross and tissue-level morphologies that they have studied earlier are established during the development;
(2) what cellular behaviors normally contribute to such morphogenetic events;
(3) what molecular pathways work in the tissue-forming embryonic cells and how these pathways can participate in normal and pathological cellular behaviors of the adult cells;
(4) how developmental biological knowledge has been accumulated through utilizing a variety of non-human animal models;
(5) how pregnancy is diagnosed and monitored and what ethical issues we should bear in mind;
(6) how the understanding of embryological or developmental biological studies can contribute to regenerative medicine including clinical applications using embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells.
