3.00 Credits
Prerequisite:PCB 3063C GENETICS This course will detail the molecular basis of inheritance in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Topics will include the structure and organization of DNA, plus DNA replication, repair, and recombination. Transcription, translation, and processing of gene products will be covered. A major emphasis will be the regulation of these molecular processes.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PCB 3023C. Introduction to the major concepts in modern basic immunology with an emphasis on the relevant immunological mechanisms in pathogenesis of different diseases and pathological conditions. Emphasizes the transposition of basic science information into clinical problems through use of immunopathological concepts. Three hours lecture.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Either PCB 3023C or PCB 3063C. This course will provide current information on the molecular, cellular, and genetic changes associated with cancer cells. Cellular and environmental causes of cancer will be discussed, and treatment options will be covered. Students should gain a thorough understanding of cancer at the cellular level by the conclusion of the course.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PCB 3043C, CHM 2045C, and CHM 2046C. This course involves the study of inland waters. The current definition of inland water includes lakes, streams, estuaries, and wetlands. Subjects include physical, chemical and biological limnology. (A laboratory fee of $30 will be assessed.)
-
3.00 Credits
PREREQS: PCB 3043C, PCB 3063C or permission of the instructor. Evolution is the unifying theory of biology, linking fields as diverse as biochemistry and ecology, genetics and anatomy. In this course we will investigate both the wealth of evidence for evolution by common descent and the genetic and ecological mechanisms by which evolution occurs in natural populations. In addition we will cover the history of evolutionary biology from pre-Darwinism views to present day controversies, and the key events that have lead to our current understanding of the subject.
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisites: PCB 3023C, PHY 2054, and PHY 2054L. The study of functional activities and interactions of cells, tissues and organs, with emphasis on respiration, excitation, transport phenomena, and control mechanisms. Three hours lecture, four hours laboratory. (A laboratory fee of $30 will be assessed.)
-
3.00 Credits
BA or BS in a natural science area. A study of cell structure and functions with emphasis on the structure and function of intracellular organelles and their biochemistry. Three hours lecture.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: PCB 3023C The course is an overview of the cellular basis of innate and acquired immunity. Topics include antibody-antigen interactions, organization of antibody genes, mechanisms of B cell and T cell activation, the major histocompatibility complex, complement, and cell-mediated cytotoxic responses.
-
3.00 Credits
PREREQS: PCB 3023C, BCH 4033, PCB 3063C. This course will detail the molecular basis of inheritance in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Topics will cover the structure and function of DNA, including replication, repair, and recombination. Expressions of genes including transcription, translation, and processing of RNA will be covered, as well as regulation of these events. These processes will then be incorporated into the role of gene function in signal transduction and development.

3.00 Credits
PREREQS: PCB 3043C, PCB 3063C or permission of the instructor. Evolution is the unifying theory of biology, linking fields as diverse as biochemistry and ecology, genetics and anatomy. In this course we will investigate both the wealth of evidence for evolution by common descent and the genetic and ecological mechanisms by which evolution occurs in natural populations. Students will be required to independently analyze current literature articles on evolutionary research on a weekly basis. In addition we will cover the history of evolutionary biology from pre-Darwinism views to present day controversies, and the key events that have lead to our current understanding of the subject.
