Introduction

We will study human development over a series of 3 practical classes spanning the overall human prenatal developmental timecourse. There will be an additional class covering the extramebryonic tissues formed from the conceptus (the embryonic membranes and placenta).

Practical 3 - Fertilization to Implantation Practical 6 - Implantation to 8 Weeks Practical 12 - Fetal Period
 
Practical 8 - Placenta and Fetal Membranes
