The "Human Embryology" (人体胚胎学) is a science that studies the normal human development as well as birth defects in the maternal uterus.
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.
Before starting this course, please read the learning guidance sheet carefully!

人体胚胎学是研究人类个体发生与器官形成过程的科学,即从一个受精卵通过分裂增殖、细胞分化及形态发生与演变,形成具有特定形态的胎儿的科学。研究内容包括生殖细胞发生、胚胎发生、发育过程、发育机理;胎儿与母体的关系;畸形发生、畸形发生的可能原因及预防措施;人类生殖工程技术与胚胎发育的研究方法。
人体胚胎学课程的教学目的是使学生获得人体胚胎学基本理论和基本知识,以科学的观点理解生命的发生与演变,对于指导人类生育与优生具有极其重要的理论意义。在医学科学中,人体胚胎学与细胞生物学、生理学、遗传学、病理学等基础学科间都存在着内在联系,也为妇产科学、儿科学、男性学、生殖工程学等临床学科提供了必要的基础知识,更是计划生育与优生优育赖以发展的学科之一。
本课程围绕临床案例学习相关专业知识,培养学生应用理论知识分析解决实际问题的能力,并在专业课教学中融入生命教育,将思政教育理念传递给学生,培养学生珍爱生命的意识,加深对生命的理解和探究,引领学生探索奇妙的生命世界。本课程主要适用于临床医学五年制和长年制学生,同时兼顾预防医学、口腔医学、护理学等不同专业、不同学制学生以及在职的医疗卫生工作者和对人体生理感兴趣的人士。

“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.
