-
0.00 Credits
1 to 3 hours. Prerequisite: admission to Honors Program. May be repeated; maximum credit six hours. Will provide an opportunity for the gifted honors candidate to work at a special project under the guidance of a professor in the student's field. Laboratory (F, Sp, Su)
-
0.00 Credits
1 to 3 hours. Prerequisite: one course in general area to be studied; permission of instructor and department. May be repeated; maximum credit six hours. Contracted independent study for topic not currently offered in regularly scheduled courses. Independent study may include library and/or laboratory research and field projects. (F, Sp, Su)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3113 or permission of instructor. The course focus is on the molecular and cellular bases of disease and alterations in cellular processes that lead to the development of various pathological conditions. Topics include symptoms of cellular disease, pathology of organelles, cell injury, cell death, immunopathology, neoplasia and genetic disorders. No student may earn credit for both 4113 and 5113. (F)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3103; 3113 strongly recommended. The major emphasis of the course is how hormones work at the molecular, cellular, and physiological levels. The course examines the molecular biology of hormonal mechanisms and the integration of those mechanisms to maintain crucial homeostatic control systems. Hormones and their receptors are considered in terms of chemistry, biosynthesis, and mechanisms of action. The course focuses primarily on vertebrate hormones. No student may earn credit for both 4153 and 5153. (Sp)
-
4.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 1114, 1121, 2204; or permission. Field trips. Systematics, relationships, zoogeography and evolutionary morphology of the major groups of vertebrates. No student may receive credit for both 4204 and 5204. (Irreg.)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisites: 3103, 3113, 3203, or 3333, or permission of instructor. Introduction to cellular and molecular neurobiology through reading and discussion of landmark research papers in five current areas of research. Emphasis will be on understanding modern cellular and molecular research methods and on critical interpretation of scientific data. No student may earn credit for both 4223 and 5223. (Sp)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3013 and 3203, or permission of the instructor. Introduction to evolutionary developmental biology (EVO DEVO), study of the developmental basis of evolutionary changes and how developmental mechanisms and developmentally important genes evolve. Latest techniques and methods in evolutionary biology, embryology, developmental biology, molecular genetics, population biology, phylogenetics and genomics. No student may earn credit for both 4253 and 5253. (Sp-odd numbered years)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 1114 and 1121, or 1124 and permission of instructor; 3333 or 3403 recommended. Selected protocols and data interpretation using molecular techniques to study protein and DNA variation in natural populations and the application of molecular techniques to research problems in ecology, systematics, animal behavior, conservation biology, and related areas. Graduate students enrolled in 5353 will have additional project expectations and written work. Taught at the OU Biological Station. No student may earn credit for both 4353 and 5353. Laboratory (Su)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 3113 and either 3203 or 3333 or 4843 or Chemistry 3653 or permission of the instructor. Introduction to how to study the functions (broadly including biochemical activity, cell biological function or organismal function) of all the genes in a genome. Latest techniques and methods in genetics, molecular biology, microarrays, proteomics and computation biology. No student may earn credit for both 4383 and 5383. (F)
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: 12 hours of biological science coursework or permission of the instructor. A combined lecture/laboratory course that focuses on the physical, chemical, and biological features of stream ecosystems, including current theories explaining species interactions and stream function.
