-
3.00 Credits
The physical and chemical basis of heredity, the nature and mechanisms of gene action. PREREQ: BISC207 and one semester of organic chemistry.
-
4.00 Credits
Microscopic organization, identification and functional anatomy of mammalian organ systems and tissues. PREREQ: BISC208.
-
3.00 Credits
Starts with a series of inquiry-based laboratory experiences in cell biology, centered on microscopy and using several protist model organisms. In second half of semester, students conduct a 5-6 week hypothesis-driven independent study project. Project proposals are peer-critiqued. Group presentations at end of semester detail the experiments they carried out and discuss how the results fit with previously published data and with original hypotheses. PREREQ: BISC208, BISC305, and CHEM321 or CHEM331 or CHEM213.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduction to the process of scientific inquiry as it relates to cellular molecular biology. Learn the theory behind experimental procedures in the field and perform a series of laboratory exercises emphasizing experimental design and data analysis. Pose related scientific questions, design experiments and present results in written, poster or oral format. PREREQ: BISC208, BISC401, CHEM321 or CHEM213.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will engage in the scientific process, develop new experimental skills, and collaborate with others through discussion and lab work. This is a student driven, inquiry-based lab where students will take ownership of their project and directly contribute to the cutting-edge research in the field of developmental biology. PREREQS: BISC401 or BISC403 or BISC415.
-
3.00 Credits
Students conduct laboratory investigations in Mendelian genetics, population and evolutionary genetics, and molecular genetics; learn to use several common bioinformatics tools; and design, perform and analyze original experiments. PREREQ: BISC208, BISC403.
-
3.00 Credits
Students will present, evaluate, and discuss recently published research articles on the basic molecular mechanisms that regulate cellular processes in both embryonic development and cancer. PREREQ: BISC305, BISC401, BISC403, or equivalent.
-
3.00 Credits
Explore mechanisms underlying development. Topics: gamete interactions, establishment of body plans, cell signaling and tissue interactions, morphogenetic pattern formation, developmental regulation of gene expression, molecular control of tissue specification and diversification, and the evolutionary comparison of developmental processes. Diseases resulting from developmental defects will be discussed. PREREQ: BISC207 and BISC208.
-
3.00 Credits
Short-term experimental research course in animal physiology. Conduct, in a group, an independent research project based on primary literature. Beginning with practicing basic skills on background information research, data collection and quantitative analysis, students construct a research question based on previous findings in the literature, conduct a series of experiment, and communicate the discoveries in formal writings and oral presentation. PREREQ: BISC208, CHEM104 and CHEM134, and BISC306.
-
1.00 - 2.00 Credits
Teaching experience in an undergraduate laboratory or class. Evaluation based on teaching performance and preparation of required material for the laboratory or class. PREREQ: BISC 207, BISC 208 and BISC 403. RESTRICTIONS: Requires permission of instructor.
