The HSC Biology Podcast

Module 8: Kidney Disorders, Technology and Evaluation

The HSC Biology Podcast

Show Notes

Explain a range of causes of disorders by investigating the structures and functions of the relevant organs, for example: hearing loss visual disorders loss of kidney function Investigate technologies that are used to assist with the effects of a disorder, including but not limited to: (ACSBL100) hearing loss: cochlear implants, bone conduction implants, hearing aids visual disorders: spectacles, laser surgery loss of kidney function: dialysis Thanks to STEM Reactor for sponsoring this podcast.
