Discover the human abdomen as you explore its key features, how it works, and learn about common gastrointestinal problems.
Master key concepts and practical skills through structured learning modules. By completing this curriculum, you'll gain valuable expertise applicable to real-world scenarios.
Use real-life examples to study organic compounds. During each week of the course, we will use real-life examples to show you how an understanding of the structure and shape of organic compounds can be used to explain their reactivity and properties. Week 1: The chemical attraction of perfumes and pheromones We’ll identify a range of natural and synthetic attractants; understand current theories that help to explain how chemical structure is related to smell; and make a molecular model. Week 2: The race for new antibiotics We’ll describe the mode of action of antibiotics; understand bacterial resistance; identify promising new areas of research to design smarter drugs; and explore pattern recognition in structure-activity relationships. Week 3: The chemistry of brewing We’ll describe the process of brewing; identify key flavouring compounds in beer, tea and coffee; understand the role of modern analytical methods; and analyse spectroscopic data. Week 4: The chemistry of sport We’ll explore innovations that are changing the game; identify modern materials that improve performance and aid protection; and model the structures of polymers. Learn with organic chemistry experts from the University of York The University of York is a centre of excellence in chemical education, being the home of Salters' Advanced Chemistry (Science Education Department), the A-level magazine Chemistry Review, and it has a notable history and track record in outreach, principally by our CIEC group, including The Essential Chemical Industry website.
You’ll look at the features of the anterior (front) abdominal wall and the composition of the gastrointestinal tract.
You’ll study common problems that can occur in the tract and hear from an abdominal surgeon about the work he does to treat them.
You’ll also explore how the ‘abs’ are considered in relation to health and beauty as you consider how the abdomen is looked at in the media.
