1001-403 - Cell Physiology

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

A study of functional eukaryotic cellular physiology with an emphasis on the role of global gene expression in cellular function and disease. Nuclear and cytoplasmic regulation of macromolecular synthesis, regulation of cellular metabolism, control of cell growth, and the changes in cell physiology in disease are covered. Lectures will also cover the scientifi c technology for studying changes in gene expression associated with cell differentiation and disease. In the associated laboratory students will learn the experimental techniques to do a microarray experiment. Students will design and carry out an experiment to acquire gene expression data, learn how to analyze their acquired data using simple computer programs (MAGIC), and write a research paper explaining their fi ndings.
