3.00 Credits
4 credits See description preceding BC6200. The final course in this sequence covers the pathology of the genitourinary, gastrointestinal, endocrine and nervous systems. Prerequisite: BC5129 (or concurrent if on five-year track option A), BC6201
-
4.00 Credits
4 credits This course explores the basic principles of human immunity, including nonspecific host defenses, humoral and cell-mediated immunity, complement, cytokines, and the major histocompatibility complex. The course defines a normal immune response and explores what occurs when the immune system is not functioning normally as in autoimmunity, hypersensitivity, and immune deficiencies. Also examined are transplantation and cancer surveillance. (Immunology is a prerequisite for Infectious Diseases.) Prerequisite: Completion of all first year BC courses for the four or five-year track and BC5142
-
5.00 Credits
5 credits This course explores a systems-wide approach to infection. The focus is on infectious agents (identification, virulence, transmission), pathology of infection, signs and symptoms, laboratory diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic strategies to infection. Prerequisite: BC6204
-
5.00 Credits
5 credits This course covers the basics of drug interactions including pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, drug and toxin metabolism, and the molecular basis for drug and botanical effects. Particular attention is given to the commonly used therapeutic agents for cardiac, central nervous system, infectious, and endocrine diseases. Toxicities, drug interactions and clinical effectiveness are also emphasized. Most legend drugs within the naturopathic scope of practice are included and the mechanisms of herbal action and drug/herb interactions are discussed. Prerequisites: BC5106, BC5109, BC6200
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course provides a biomedical overview of cancer in terms of biology, etiology, staging and progression. The coursework provides the allopathic framework from which clinical care is derived. The course also provides students with a more sophisticated understanding of the paradigm of Western oncology care, which, in turn, ultimately enhances patient care and treatment strategies. Prerequisites: Admission to DAOM program, or one of BC5132 or BC6202, or permission of AOM dean or instructor
-
3.00 Credits
3 credits This course provides a foundation for understanding the pharmacological agents used in cancer treatment. Topics include primary medications used in oncology as well as secondary medication to address side effects of treatment. Pharmacological management of medicating for depression/anxiety are also covered. Prerequisites: Admission to DAOM program, or one of BC5132 or BC6305, or permission of AOM dean or instructor
-
2.00 Credits
2 credits This course examines herb/ supplements and drug interactions. The course examines herbs that can be used for specific pathological conditions (ulcers, depression, anxiety, etc.) and then looks at the possible drug interactions that may occur. Specific emphasis is placed on mechanisms and the in vitro and clinical trial data on botanicals. Prerequisites: BC6305 for NM students; BC4125 for AOM students. Open to students who have completed a pharmacology course and to practicing pharmacists.
-
2.00 Credits
2 credits This laboratory course is designed to enable students to learn basic experimental techniques used in preclinical biomedical research studies. Prerequisites: One year of biology or equivalent (to be assessed and approved by instructor) and one year of chemistry or equivalent. Students must take the bloodborne pathogen safety training prior to start of class. Contact the safety coordinator for upcoming dates.
-
2.00 Credits
2 credits This intensive short course (4 full days) is intended to help ND students meet the Bastyr University ND program's physics requirement. In particular, the course is designed for students who did well in a single college level physics course that covered mechanics but not electromagnetism or optics. Prerequisites: BC1105 or equivalent, grade C or better in college physics
-
2.00 Credits
2 credits This two-credit laboratory course is for individuals who have completed the basic Laboratory Research course. In this course, with appropriate guidance from the instructor, the goal is for the student to design and carry a small research project to completion. Prerequisite: BC9505 or permission of instructor. Students must take the bloodborne pathogen safety training prior to start of class. Contact the safety coordinator for upcoming dates.
