This course is the first part of the two semester course of Anatomy and Physiology. It integrates the anatomy and physiology of cells, tissues, organs and human body systems, It includes the study of the gross and microscopic structure of the systems of the human body with special emphasis on the relationship between structure and function. It is based on OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology book and is supplemented by content from the Open Learning Initiative (Carnegie Mellon University Open Learning Initative) and Boundless Physiology Open Book.

Series of videos that can be used in a Anatomy and Physiology class created by Paul Anderson- Bozeman Science

Short, animated videos on many Anatomy and Physiology topics. Videos used in college courses and cover the content presented in the first 2 semesters of Anatomy and Physiology for Nursing/Allied Health students.

Short video on the anatomy of a spinal nerve for anatomy and physiology.

Hello Readers, My name is Eddie Joo and I am the co-author as well as the person behind the cover art for this OER. The reason I chose the specific elements on the cover are relatively simple. I dislike the textbooks that just slap random images or things related to the subject and make the cover look really busy. I don't know about you, but any poster or ad that has something to do with Alaska usually includes mountains so I chose the ocean/water instead. Same reason with the animals as the Bear, Wolf, etc. are the go to animals when portraying Alaska so a Dall Sheep, Orca, and an Owl grace the cover. Last but most important to me is the sunrise/sunset gradient. I love seeing both in the winter and is special to me so I added it in as a little Easter egg for me. I hope you enjoy this book! Regards, Eddie

Long Description:
This book is the first edition (Fall 2022) to the exploration of two main core concepts in physiology; Systems Integration, and Homeostasis, in animals at the tissue and organ system level. The flow of this book focuses on how organ systems work together. Foundational homeostatic principles are introduced within the first chapter and threaded throughout the chapters within this text. This text was created by Eddie Joo to supplement students learning within the University of Alaska Anchorage’s Animal Physiology course. The content in this open textbook was adapted from other open textbooks (CC-BY-4.0) resources or created/written by Rachael Hannah and Eddie Joo. This work was funded by an Institutional Development Award (IDeA) from the National Institutes of Health as a Curriculum grant from ALASKA INBRE.

Biology is designed for multi-semester biology courses for science majors. It is grounded on an evolutionary basis and includes exciting features that highlight careers in the biological sciences and everyday applications of the concepts at hand. To meet the needs of today’s instructors and students, some content has been strategically condensed while maintaining the overall scope and coverage of traditional texts for this course. Instructors can customize the book, adapting it to the approach that works best in their classroom. Biology also includes an innovative art program that incorporates critical thinking and clicker questions to help students understand—and apply—key concepts.

This material is labwork meant to be used in conjunction with the Candela "Biology II" course.

This course presents the fundamentals of digital signal processing with particular emphasis on problems in biomedical research and clinical medicine. It covers principles and algorithms for processing both deterministic and random signals. Topics include data acquisition, imaging, filtering, coding, feature extraction, and modeling. The focus of the course is a series of labs that provide practical experience in processing physiological data, with examples from cardiology, speech processing, and medical imaging. The labs are done in MATLAB® during weekly lab sessions that take place in an electronic classroom. Lectures cover signal processing topics relevant to the lab exercises, as well as background on the biological signals processed in the labs.
