BIOLOGY 241S: Biology of Nervous System Diseases
3.00 Credits
Duke University
Primary literature investigating the underlying molecular and cellular mechanisms of nervous system disorders such as neurodegenerative diseases (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Huntington's), mental illness, and epilepsy.

BIOLOGY 242S: Visual Processing
3.00 Credits
Duke University
Focus on understanding how visual systems adapt to an animal's requirement. About a third of the course will focus on understanding the evolutionary processes that shape the visual system. The remaining 2/3 will focus on understanding the neural processes underlying vision. A comparative approach--comparing invertebrate vs. vertebrate vision will be used to highlight different ways in which visual information is processed. Introduction of methods used to study vision (and brain function) from "single molecules to whole organism." Prereq: Bio 101L or Bio 102L and one course in Neurosciences. Instructor: Bhandawat

BIOLOGY 258S: The Making of the Modern Evolutionary Synthesis
3.00 Credits
Duke University
An examination of the intellectual and historical development of the modern evolutionary synthesis. Topics will include: the state of evolutionary theory and the debate between the "Mendelians" and "Darwinians" in the early part of the 20th century, the development of modern population genetics and its synthesis with ecology, systematics and paleontology. Contributions of Fisher, Wright, Dobzhansky, Mayr, and Simpson will be highlighted with focus on original literature. What was and was not part of the synthesis, and why, and the current state of evolutionary theory will also be discussed. Enrollment limited to graduate students. Instructors: K. Smith and J. Willis
