19	Objective of the Course:	Changes in membrane potential plays an important role in signal transduction at excitable cells such as neuron and muscle cells. The purpose of this course; to examine the main events in the formation of membrane potentials, graded potentials and action potentials, to understand recording techniques of these potential changes and to know how to use bioelectric potentials applied in clinic such as ECG, EMG and EEG.
20	Contribution of the Course to Professional Development	Knowing these properties of excitable cells and tissues will provide a more dominant perspective on the diseases of excitable tissues and organs in the clinic.

Learning Outcomes:

1	To explain the functions of the cell membrane;
2	To understand the resting membrane potential;
3	To predict how could be change of membrane potential;
4	To understand that the graded potentials and action potential are the transfer of signal/knowledge.;
5	To compare the recording techniques of bioelectric potentials;
6	To understand the basics of bioelectric potentials in use of clinical practice and its recording techniques. ;
