Head & Neck

The unit aims to enable students to make progress towards meeting some of the learning outcomes described in 'Outcome for Graduates' (2018) relevant to ‘The Doctor as a Scholar and Scientist’ and ‘The Doctor as a Professional’. The specific aims are

• to study the structures of the head and neck within functional and clinical contexts;
• to apply this knowledge to understand the basis of common clinical head and neck disorders and the procedures used to investigate them
• to integrate the module with a future module (neurobiology) and as the explicator of patho-physiology and disease in clinical domains (particularly ENT and Ophthalmology).
