The St Catharine's College Outreach team are hosting a series of online Subject Masterclasses for UK state school students in Year 12 (or equivalent). These will be hosted by students studying at the College and will offer prospective students the opportunity to experience an interactive subject specific taster session, to learn more about their subject, and challenge their thinking. These will be hosted online over Zoom and will be free of charge.
Cardiovascular Physiology: In this session, the students will learn about the basics of cardiovascular physiology. We will first think about the determinants of cardiovascular function in healthy people and then try to understand the ways in which this can be impaired. We will then consider the origin and consequences of common conditions such as heart failure, heart attack or high blood pressure. By the end of the session, the students should have a deeper understanding of the roles of the different components of the system.
