Description:

This elective course will analyze the cardiovascular system based upon its two principal parts: (1) the primary "pump" for blood flow, the heart, and (2) the conduit for blood flow, the blood vessels. Students will gain an understanding of the cardiovascular system by analyzing the heart anatomy and function, how blood flows through the blood vessels, and the impact of the nervous system on cardiovascular function. Students will utilize the historical primary literature as a foundation for current experimental ideas. Thus, students will have to analyze, interpret, and discuss historical and up-to-date primary literature. Prerequisite: "C or better" in BIOL 3402. Once a year.
