Pre-calculus mathematics is a required prerequisite of university-level mathematics courses in this program. If you are interested in this program, and have the option to take pre-calculus mathematics at your school, it is highly recommended that you do so, or enroll in pre-calculus mathematics through distance education/another institution or complete MATH 102 at USask to fulfil the prerequisite requirement during your first year. | | |

| Description | Cellular, physiological and pharmacological sciences is the study of the structure, function and development of organisms at the molecular, subcellular, cellular, tissue and organ levels. It investigates the functions and mechanisms of major systems of the human body and studies the effects and mode of action of drugs which modify major body systems.
You will study human anatomy, cell biology, neurobiology, skeletal biology, embryonic development, histology, and anatomical imaging. You will also study the properties of chemical compounds in relation to their interactions with living organisms and examine the basis for the discovery and study of drug actions either as therapeutic agents or as tools in physiological research. These fields can be used to advance medical science with clinical relevance to osteoarthritis, Alzheimer's disease, peripheral nerve damage and repair, multiple sclerosis, aging, cancer and pain. | | |
