Goals	Program goals are: Exploration the clinical anatomy of the whole body integrated the morphology and morphometry of anatomical structures with metabolic processes. These lectures will focus on integrating the anatomical basis on anthropometric measurements with relation to the clinical nutrition, metabolism of macronutrients at the whole body systems level. Students will build on the anatomical systems knowledge gained through the anatomy sequence by exploring the effect of nutrition and metabolism in human growth, function, and health, clinical and surgical anatomical changes, relation of clinical nutrition with anthropometrical parameters.
Course Content	Human musculoskeletal system, skin, structure of the human body, movement analysis, anthropometry and anatomical measurements in healthy population, clinical nutrition and morphometric changes in anatomical structures, nerves, central, autonomic, and peripheral nervous systems, cranial nerves; regional anatomy of the head, special senses, clinical anatomy of upper digestive system lower digestive system, clinical anatomy of the reproductive and renal systems; endocrine organs, practical anthropometric measurements in clinical nutrition and their relation with clinical anatomy, anthropometric equipment, calibration and examination procedures, surgical anatomy and their relation with anatomic anthropometric parameters
Learning Outcomes	1) Adjust human musculoskeletal system and skin thickness 2) Develop theoretical knowledge at the level of expertise based on basic competencies in the areas of functional human body anatomy including movement analysis 3) Solves anthropometry and anatomical measurements
