-
1.00 Credits
Primarily for sophomores interested in majoring in Biology. Weekly seminars by faculty: molecular biology and genetics; theory and mathematics in biology; ecology, physiology, and the environment; molecular and cellular aspects of neurobiology, immunology, and developmental biology; biological chemistry; behavioral biology; and evolution. May be repeated for credit. 1 unit, Aut (Riepel, A), Win (Riepel, A)
-
3.00 Credits
(Same as HUMBIO 21.) Evolutionary principles to understand how the brain regulates behavior, described in physiological terms, and is influenced by behavioral interactions. Topics include neuron structure and function, transmission of neural information, anatomy and physiology of sensory and motor systems, regulation of body states, the biological basis of learning and memory, and behavioral abnormalities. GER:DB-NatSci 3 units, Aut (Fernald, R), alternate years, not given next year
-
3.00 Credits
(Same as BIO 104.) Molecular mechanisms that govern the replication, recombination, and expression of eukaryotic genomes. Topics: DNA replication, DNA recombination, gene transcription, RNA splicing, regulation of gene expression, protein synthesis, and protein folding. Prerequisite: Biology core. 5 units, Win (Frydman, J; Gozani, O)
-
4.00 Credits
(Same as DBIO 203, GENE 203.) For graduate students in Bioscience programs; may be appropriate for graduate students in other programs. The genetic toolbox. Examples of analytic methods, genetic manipulation, genome analysis, and human genetics. Emphasis is on use of genetic tools in dissecting complex biological pathways, developmental processes, and regulatory systems. Faculty-led discussion sections with evaluation of papers. Students with minimal experience in genetics should prepare by working out problems in college level textbooks. 4 units, Aut (Stearns, T; Barsh, G; Sidow, A)
