ABSTRACT

At the heart of biomedical science education is the need to impart a comprehensive understanding of the human body, exploring its functions in states of health and disease. This educational journey is not a superficial overview but a deep dive into the complex biological systems that define human life. Curricula encompass a range of foundational subjects, each playing a pivotal role in shaping a student’s understanding of the workings of the body. This involves delving into subjects such as biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, immunology, microbiology, and pathology among others. These foundational subjects are crucial for students to understand the complex interactions and processes that occur within the body and through these subjects, biomedical science education provides students with a holistic understanding of the human body. The knowledge gained from these foundational subjects is not isolated; rather, it is interlinked, reflecting the interconnected nature of biological systems. This integrated approach is vital, ultimately preparing students for careers in biomedical research, healthcare, and beyond.
