  • INTEGBI 117: Medical Ethnobotany

    2.00 Credits
    University of California-Berkeley

    Biological diversity and ethno-linguistic diversity sustain traditional botanical medicine systems of the world. Major topics covered in this course include cultural origins of medicinal plant knowledge on plant-derived pharmaceuticals and phytomedicines; field research methods in ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology; examples of how traditional botanical medicines provide safe, effective, affordable, and sustainable primary health care to tropical countries; human physiology, human diseases, and mechanisms of action of plant-derived drugs. Description: Laboratory will focus on studying medicinal plants from the major ecosystems and geographical regions of the world. Students will learn common names, scientific names, plant families, field identification, habitats, and ethnomedical uses of medicinal plants. How the medicinal plant is prepared, administered, and used as a phytomedicine will also be discussed. There will be reference to the phylogenetic relationships between the plant families and genera represented by the medicinal plants.

  • INTEGBI 118: Host-Pathogen Interactions: A Trans-Discipline Outlook

    3.00 Credits
    University of California-Berkeley

    The second half of the 20th century has been marked by great strides in the battle against infectious diseases. However, the forces that drive bacterial evolution are not dormant and continue to pose new challenges for science and medicine. In this course we will cover various aspects relating to host-pathogen interactions in animals and in plants, learning about viral pathogens, fungi, parasitic nematodes, and focusing on bacterial pathogens. We will examine the ecological context in which such interactions take place and how these interactions are shaped by evolution. We will further focus on prominent molecular mechanisms that participate in both pathogen and host in this warfare and learn how ancient mechanisms are used and reused in diverse organisms spanning hundreds of millions of years of evolution and how they integrate with more recently evolved mechanisms. The course will examine how such mechanisms contribute to disease, but also how the understanding of these mechanisms could suggest new strategies for fighting infectious diseases.

  • INTEGBI 123A: Exercise Physiology

    3.00 Credits
    University of California-Berkeley

    123A should be taken concurrently with 123AL. Discussions of how chemical energy is captured within cells and how potential chemical energy is converted to muscular work. Energetics, direct and indirect calorimetry, pathways of carbon flow in exercise, ventilation, circulation, skeletal muscle fiber types. Description: Discussion of how chemical energy is captured within cells and how potential chemical energy is converted to muscular work. Energetics, direct and indirect calorimetry, pathways of carbon flow in exercise, ventilation, circulation, skeletal muscle fiber types. Laboratory component of the course is to obtain practical experience in the measurement of physiological parameters and to be able to compile, compare, contrast, and interpret physiological data. Laboratory demonstrations and exercises will explain lecture content.

  • INTEGBI 127: Motor Control

    2.00 Credits
    University of California-Berkeley

    Control of human posture, locomotion, and voluntary movements. We start with control at the spinal level: how muscle mechanics, properties of muscle and skin mechanoreceptors and simple spinal connections permit control of a wide variety of movements. We then study the anatomy and physiology of motor systems of the brain. Finally, we use principles of control and information theories to synthesize knowledge of these elements to understand the control systems that regulate posture, locomotion, and voluntary movements. Description: Neural control of movement in humans and other animals. Lectures introduce basic theories of information and control, analyze motor control at the spinal level, survey anatomy and physiology of motor systems of the brain, and synthesize theory and physiology to understand control systems that regulate posture, locomotion, and voluntary movements. In laboratories, students learn theory and motor physiology hands-on, and design and perform independent investigations.

  • INTEGBI 135: The Mechanics of Organisms

    4.00 Credits
    University of California-Berkeley

    Organism design in terms of mechanical principles; basics of fluid and solid mechanics with examples of their biological implications, stressing the dependence of mechanical behavior and locomotion on the structure of molecules, tissues, structural elements, whole organisms, and habitats. Description: Introduction to laboratory and field study of the biomechanics of animals and plants using fundamental biomechanical techniques and equipment. Course has a series of rotations involving students in experiments demonstrating how solid and fluid mechanics can be used to discover the way in which diverse organisms move and interact with their physical environment. The laboratories emphasize sampling methodology, experimental design, and statistical interpretation of results. Latter third of course devoted to independent research projects. Written reports and class presentation of project results are required. Also listed as Electrical Engineering C145O and Bioengineering C136L.
