Offered by University of Michigan,
Anatomy: Gastrointestinal, Reproductive and Endocrine Systems (Coursera)

In this anatomy course, part of the Anatomy Specialization, you’ll learn about the various digestive, endocrine, and reproductive organs, their functions, and pathways of nerves and blood vessels serving these organs. Clinical correlations and vignettes will be used to highlight the importance of these anatomical structures and their relationships. Images and videos from cadaveric and artistic materials will be used to illustrate these concepts.

Par ses multiples expériences, l’homme a découvert quelles étaient les meilleures essences de bois pour répondre à chacun de ses besoins en matériaux ou en sources d’énergie. Le premier objectif de ce MOOC est de relier le bois en tant que tissu dans l’arbre et le bois en tant que matériau dans la vie des hommes. A la croisée de ces deux mondes, se trouve l’anatomie, c’est-à-dire la structure cellulaire, qui permet de comprendre presque toutes les propriétés du bois.
