Bringing your notes down
Short lessons across the seven first-year health science papers at Otago and Auckland, before semester one starts.
Start free with one module from each paper. Every paper comes with Pro.
Otago CELS 191, Cell and Molecular Biology. Auckland BIOSCI 107, Biology for Biomedical Science: Cellular Processes.
The cell as a working machine, the flow of information from DNA to protein, how that information is passed on, and the microbes that exploit all of it.
Otago CHEM 191, The Chemical Basis of Biology and Human Health. Auckland CHEM 110, Chemistry of the Living World.
The calculation fluency first year assumes on day one, then the four big ideas (energy, rate, equilibrium and structure) that explain why biological reactions go the way they do.
Otago HUBS 191 + 192, Human Body Systems 1 and 2. Auckland MEDSCI 142, Biology for Biomedical Science: Organ Systems.
Structure and function, system by system, held together by one organising idea: homeostasis. Twice the size of the other worlds, because there is twice as much of it.
Otago PHSI 191, Biological Physics. Auckland PHYSICS 160, Physics for the Life Sciences.
The physical principles behind the body, and, first, the mathematical fluency both papers assume you already have on day one.
Otago POPH 192, Population Health. Auckland POPLHLTH 111, Population Health.
Thinking about health one population at a time rather than one patient at a time: measuring it, working out what causes what, and reading evidence critically.
Otago BIOC 192, Foundations of Biochemistry. Auckland BIOSCI 106, Foundations of Biochemistry.
The chemistry of life at molecular resolution: proteins and enzymes, the energy currency, and how food becomes ATP.
