A blog that contains lecture notes in human medical physiology for students of medicine and health sciences . Sample exams and key answers are also available . The aim of this blog is to provide the students with a quick , brief , and precise review , instead of wasting time and efforts reviewing the textbooks .
This blog is not an alternative of textbooks in Human Physiology . Cooperation with other instructors and lecturers in Human Medical Physiology is quite welcome.
