  • BIO 365: Biomedical Statistics

    4.00 Credits
    Grand Canyon University

    This course is an introduction to basic concepts of descriptive and inferential statistics, experimental design, and an exploration of chronic and infectious disease epidemiology. Students explore study and sampling designs by reviewing the steps of experiment design. Statistical methodologies include graphing, probability theory, estimation, confidence intervals, hypothesis testing, correlation and regression, and analysis of variance. One-, two-, and multi-group parametric and nonparametric methods are introduced, requiring use of Z, t, F, and Chi-squared distributions. Epidemiology techniques include basic measures of disease frequency, exposure-disease associations, prevalence, and incidence relationships. Measures of effect, sources of bias, estimation, and hypothesis testing in epidemiology are discussed, along with estimation of risk and odds. Prerequisite: Grade C or better in MAT 134 or 3 years of high school algebra with a grade of C or better.

  • BIO 483: Pathophysiology

    4.00 Credits
    Grand Canyon University

    This course is designed to bridge the gap between basic preclinical science courses and the clinical requirements of health care/life science professionals. Systematic studies focus on the etiology, pathogenesis, morphology, and clinical manifestations associated with various altered health states and diseases. Material is presented using clinically relevant terminology that increases accurate and effective communication through extensive vocabulary expansion. Upon completion of this course, students should be able to correctly discuss a variety of disease states with health care professionals and patients while addressing the following questions: What is actually happening at the physiological level that causes the signs and symptoms of a given condition or disease? How does a change in normal physiology cause the signs and symptoms of a given condition or disease? How do these physiological effects correlate to mechanisms of accurate diagnoses? Why is one treatment method chosen over another? How do different systems intricately interrelate to cause a clinical picture and complications? Prerequisites: BIO 201 and BIO 202 or BIO 360.
