摘要: This article discusses modeling as a device that you might use in research, education, or the practice of medicine engineering. The purpose is to allow explore, examine, and perhaps even models, just would device. Physiological models are almost unique among equipment, because major education. Through physiological one can learn about physiology, pharmacology, scientific concepts, clinical situations. main way model through simulation simulator. We distinguish between simulators, former being much more common. usually give enough detail so reader decide whether make effort locate reference(s), author(s), and/or simulator. The divided by systems. Each section describes some characteristics peculiarities system, followed description available, highlighting ones be easily inexpensively used. concentrate on central nervous, cardiovascular thermal regulatory systems, mainly area classical, macro, physiology. The body its systems depend control these emphasized, including fascinating phenomenon autoregulation, which has own section. Autoregulation astoundingly simple amazingly complex, but never completely independent other systems. The past, present, future also explore. particularly exciting. physiome project physiology what genome been genetics.
