Human Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory Manual is designed to accompany a two-semester, college sequence of courses for human anatomy and physiology. It presents detailed structural and functional information for all eleven organ systems in the human body. Most students in these courses are pursuing careers in a health profession, such as nursing, nutrition science, physical or occupational therapy, physician assistant, optometry, pharmacy, or other allied health programs. While the manual is not clinically oriented, it provides a solid foundation for any student interested in learning more about the human body’s many parts and how they work.

Mark F. Taylor

Mark Taylor was born in Longview, Texas in 1956, and grew up in nearby Gladewater. He graduated from Gladewater High School in 1974 and received an Associate of Science degree from nearby Kilgore College in 1976. Mark transferred to Stephen F. Austin State University in Nacogdoches, Texas where he received B.S. and M.S. degrees in 1978 and 1980, respectively. After receiving his M.S. degree, Mark taught biology, oceanography, and geology at Jersey Village High School in Houston. Wanting to teach at a higher level after teaching a full year at Jersey Village, he went back to college to pursue a doctorate degree. He began teaching at Baylor University in 1985 and received a Ph.D. from Texas A&M University in 1986. Dr. Taylor has taught human anatomy & physiology (A&P) every semester since 1988, and in the fall 2020 semester he taught his 142nd class. In addition to A&P, Dr. Taylor has taught courses in introductory biology (BIO 1306) and ecology (BIO 3403). For three years, he served as co-director of Baylor’s Pre-Health Program.

 

Dr. Taylor is an avid educator who has published several texts and lab manuals. In addition, he has published a number of articles in The American Biology Teacher, the journal for the National Association of Biology Teachers. Dr. Taylor and Dr. Sally Jackson developed an interactive game for the immune system, called ImmunoScenarios, which was patented in 1996. Dr. Taylor is a member of several professional societies, including The Human Anatomy & Physiology Society (HAPS). He has presented workshops at regional and national HAPS conferences and is ever mindful of developing innovative strategies for teaching biology. The high points of Dr. Taylor’s days on campus are teaching in the classroom and interacting with students during office hours.

 

Outside of the classroom, Dr. Taylor enjoys spending time with friends and family, especially his wife, Linda, to whom he has been married for over 40 years. They are avid cyclists. Whether riding with a local bicycle club or on rides to support various charities, their goal is to ride their bikes over 4000 miles per year.
