 Medical School History.
On May 31, 1949, Aomori Medical Vocational School and Hirosaki Medical School were combined and the Hirosaki University Medical school was established.
On April 1, 1951, 10 Basic chairs were inaugurated: anatomy I, anatomy II, physiology, biochemistry, pathology I, pathology II, bacteriology, pharmacology, hygiene, forensic medicine.
Also 12 clinical chairs were created in the fields of: internal medicine I, internal medicine II, pediatrics, psychiatry, surgery I, surgery II, orthopedics, dermatology and urology, ophthalmology, otolaryngology, obstetrics and gynecology, and radiology.
On April 1, 1953, the Physiology Department was separated into Physiology I and Physiology II.
On April 1, 1965 an anesthesiology chair was established.
On April 1, 1966 a parasitology chair was established.
On April 1, 1979 an oral surgery chair was established. 
Robert Cryan (1827–1881) was an Irish medical doctor, professor of Anatomy and Physiology at the Catholic University in Dublin, Ireland, as well as a lecturer on anatomy and Physiology at the Carmichael School of Medicine in Dublin 
Course structure is more traditional and divided in pre-clinical (year 1-3) /clinical part (year 3-6) and subject-based.
Practical examinations are held throughout the degree (Anatomy, Biochemistry, Pathology, Physiology practicals etc.
Dissection is part of all medical curricula in Bosnian and Herz.

Human anatomy.
Research and practice.
Human anatomy, including gross human anatomy and histology, is primarily the scientific study of the morphology of the adult human body.
It differs from physiology in that anatomy is about the morphology of biological structures, while physiology is the way those structures actually work.
Generally, students of certain biological sciences, paramedics, prosthetists and orthotists, physiotherapists, occupational therapists, nurses, and medical students learn gross anatomy and microscopic anatomy from anatomical models, skeletons, textbooks, diagrams, photographs, lectures and tutorials, and in addition, medical students generally also learn gross anatomy through practical experience of dissection and inspection of cadavers.
The study of microscopic anatomy (or histology) can be aided by practical experience examining histological preparations (or slides) under a microscope.
Human anatomy, physiology and biochemistry are complementary basic medical sciences, which are generally taught to medical students in their first year at medical school.
Human anatomy can be taught regionally or systemically; that is, respectively, studying anatomy by bodily regions such as the head and chest, or studying by specific systems, such as the nervous or respiratory systems.
The major anatomy textbook, Gray's Anatomy, has been reorganized from a systems format to a regional format, in line with modern teaching methods.
A thorough working knowledge of anatomy is required by physicians, especially surgeons and doctors working in some diagnostic specialties, such as histopathology and radiology.
Academic human anatomists are usually employed by universities, medical schools or teaching hospitals.
They are often involved in teaching anatomy, and research into certain systems, organs, tissues or cells. 
Human physiology is the science of the mechanical, physical, bioelectrical, and biochemical functions of humans in good health, their organs, and the cells of which they are composed.
Physiology focuses principally at the level of organs and systems.
Most aspects of human physiology are closely homologous to corresponding aspects of animal physiology, and animal experimentation has provided much of the foundation of physiological knowledge.
Anatomy and physiology are closely related fields of study: anatomy, the study of form, and physiology, the study of function, are intrinsically related and are studied in tandem as part of a medical curriculum.
The study of how physiology is altered in disease is pathophysiology.
