  • BIOL-UA 100: Introduction to Neural Science

    4.00 Credits
    New York University

    Bioinformatics in Medicine and Biology BIOL-UA 103 Prerequisites.4 points. Due to recent advancements in High Throughput Genomics technology, we are able to study the function of many genes. We have the ability to compare genes in normal vs. diseased cells to help us better understand the molecular mechanisms of the different diseases. In this course, students learn how to program in R, a powerful statistical programming language, use statistical methods to analyze real biomedical data, and learn how to interpret the results.

  • BIOL-UA 130: At the Bench: Biological Chemistry–Genomes to Molecular Machines

    4.00 Credits
    New York University

    An upper-level elective lab course for students majoring in biology and those seeking to fulfill requirements for entrance into advanced degree programs. Using biochemical and genetic approaches with the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, students characterize a large multisubunit protein complex that modifies chromatin and is involved in gene regulation. S. cerevisiae is a unicellular eukaryote, better known as baker's yeast, that is a widely used biochemical and genetic model organism. Affinity chromatography is used to produce purified preparations of wild-type and mutant protein complexes. The purified protein complexes are compared using a wide variety of biochemical techniques, including silver-stained SDS-PAGE, western blot, colorimetric enzymatic assay, and protein interaction assays. Yeast expressing the same mutants is used in genetic experiments to evaluate the importance of the protein complex in cell growth and gene regulation in the cell.

  • BIOL-UA 16: Field Laboratory in Ecology

    4.00 Credits
    New York University

    Provides field experience related to ecology. Study sites include pine barrens, salt marsh, swamp, maritime forest, coastal beach and dune, urban wildlife refuge, and bog. Exercises in carbon storage, effects of biological invasions on native communities, restoration ecology, and wetland processes, combined with careful attention to the identification of the floral and faunal components of each ecosystem, provide the students with strong practical experience that is coordinated with the syllabus for Introduction to Ecology (BIOL-UA 63). Selected current readings from Science and Nature, as well as relevant methodology papers from the scientific literature, are used. Practical skills gained in this course are familiarity with local flora and fauna, use of topographic maps and the global positioning system, methods for sampling natural communities, water sampling, familiarity with the format of a scientific paper, and enhanced understanding of complex ecosystems.

  • BIOL-UA 18: Urban Ecology

    4.00 Credits
    New York University

    Urban ecology focuses on the interactions between plants, animals, and the environment in an urban setting. NYU is the perfect place to get outside to observe and analyze these interactions directly. Our laboratory includes the streets, parks, and neighborhoods surrounding NYU, where students can ask questions and explore issues of how we define urban ecosystems, how biodiversity and socioeconomics interact, and how biogeochemical and hydrologic cycles function in an urban ecosystem. This course is intended for highly motivated students who plan to obtain advanced degrees in the area of environmental science.
