  • Lecture notes from Imperial College London, Medical Biosciences BSc, 2nd year, cardiovascular and thoracic biology (CTB) module. Lecture 7 on cell biology of the cardiovascular system: how cellular components of the cardiovascular system help maintain vascular homeostasis. Homeostasis is a healthy state that is maintained by the constant adjustment of biochemical and physiological pathways. An example of homeostasis is the maintenance of a constant blood pressure in the human body. lear...

  • Lecture notes from Imperial College London, Medical Biosciences BSc, 2nd year, cardiovascular and thoracic biology (CTB) module. Lecture 5 on some of the techniques that we can use to evaluate the way the heart and lungs are working. These techniques are routinely used in the clinical evaluation of patients, and also in a performance setting where athletes are trying to make small gains in performance. In particular, we’ll explore exercise and how control of cardiopulmonary function changes...
