09W: 12 Offered in alternate years A study of modern astrophysics for the advanced physics undergraduate or graduate student who may or may not have previous background in astronomy. The overall theme of the course is the creation of the elements-from the big bang to the current epoch. Physical processes in stellar interiors, stellar evolution, and nucleosynthesis will be emphasized. Starting in the 2003-2004 academic year, no student may receive credit for both Astronomy 74 and Astronomy 115. Prerequisite: Physics 43 and Astronomy 2, 3 or 15, or permission of instructor. Dist: SCI. Chaboyer.

3.00 Credits
10S: 12 Offered in alternate years The physics and observations of black holes, neutron stars, white dwarfs, supernova remnants, and extragalactic objects through x-ray, gamma-ray, and cosmic rays. Prerequisites: Physics 19 and Astronomy 25 or the equivalent, or permission of the instructor. Dist: SCI.
-
3.00 Credits
All Terms: Arrange Advanced study of a topic in observational astronomy, culminating in a one- to two-week observing session at the observatory in Arizona.
-
3.00 Credits
All terms: Arrange Intensive individual work on an observational or theoretical problem in astronomy or cosmology under the guidance of a staff member. Prerequisite: permission of the Chair.

3.00 Credits
08F, 09F: 9L The first term of a year-long graduate-level course in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology. Topics include structure, function, and biosynthesis of proteins, nucleic acids and lipids; enzyme kinetics and enzyme mechanisms; gene regulation, transcription and translation; recombinant DNA technology; nuclear trafficking, the secretory pathway, and endocytosis. Note that this course begins in late August and that students outside of the MCB program should contact the Biochemistry Department for the date of the first lecture. Not open to undergraduate students. Three lectures per week. Loros and associates.

3.00 Credits
09S, 10S: 9L The final term of a year-long graduate-level course in biochemistry, cell and molecular biology. A continuation of Biochemistry 101 and Genetics 102. Topics include cell signaling; neurobiology; metabolism; cytoskeleton, cell shape and movement; mitosis and meiosis, regulation of cell growth and division; oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes; proteosomes and protein turnover; apoptosis. Prerequisites: Biochemistry 101 and Genetics 102 or permission of the instructor. Not open to undergraduate students. Three lectures per week. Compton and associates.
-
3.00 Credits
08F, 09F: 8 Cellular and molecular biology: Proteins, DNA and recombinant DNA, gene expression, translation, membranes and the cell cycle. 65 hours of lecture and discussion largely coincident with fall term, but note that this course begins in early September. Prerequisite: Permission of course director. Compton and associates.
-
3.00 Credits
09W, 10W: 8 Intermediary metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides. Regulatory mechanisms. Bioenergetics. Nutritional biochemistry, energy and nitrogen balance, exercise. Biochemical functions of the major mammalian tissues: digestive system, liver, red cells, muscle, adipocytes. 65 hours of lecture and discussion largely coincident with winter term, but note that this course begins in late November. Prerequisite: Permission of course director. Barlowe and associates.
