-
3.00 Credits
The principles and mechanisms of hormonal control of various physiological, metabolic, reproductive, and intestinal activities in vertebrates are discussed. Prerequisite: ZOO 4240/5240 or 4190/5190.
-
4.00 Credits
Focuses on the cellular mechanisms, functions, and pathways that define the cell as the fundamental living unit. Topics include metabolism, second messengers, cell ultrastructure, membrane excitability, transport physiology, contractile systems, cell division, and programmed cell death. Dual listed with ZOO 4670. Prerequisite: LIFE 3600.
-
1.00 - 12.00 Credits
This course will cover a variety of specialized topics by graduate faculty for graduate students with need for more in-depth training in cell biology. Topics will included cell structure and function, genetics, development, signaling, membranes, metabolism, and new techniques. Prerequisite: Organic chemistry, BIOL 4600 or MOLB 4600.
-
3.00 Credits
Designed to investigate the structure and function of nervous systems, drawing information from both vertebrate and invertebrate organisms. Topics such as sensory systems, motor coordination and central integrative mechanisms are covered in addition to the basic neurophysiology of nerve cells. The laboratory complements the lecture sequence. Cross listed with NEUR 5685. Prerequisite: one course in physiology, chemistry, physics.
-
3.00 Credits
An advanced consideration of research in, and theory of, animal behavior. Prerequisite: senior or graduate standing in zoology or psychology.
-
2.00 Credits
A continuing seminar. All students in the graduate neuroscience program are expected to register for this seminar each semester. The interdisciplinary approach to the nervous system is used employing work from physiology, neuroanatomy and neurochemistry, psychology, pharmacology, and biochemistry. Cross listed with NEUR 5715. Prerequisite: admission to the graduate neuroscience program or graduate standing.
-
3.00 Credits
With the emphasis on modern techniques, course prepares students via theory and technical experience to use transmission electron microscopy in biological and material science research. An individual research project is required. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Designed to cover advanced topics in physiology for graduate students specializing in physiology or related fields. Course material will be taken from the classical and current literature. Examples of topics to be covered periodically include comparative vertebrate reproduction, circadian rhythms, physiological adaptations to thermal stress and chemical communication. Prerequisite: ZOO 5610 and 5620 or equivalent.
-
1.00 - 4.00 Credits
Designed to cover advanced topics in Physiology for students specializing in Physiology or related fields. Examples of topics include endocrinology, cardiovascular, renal, neurological, respiratory, and metabolic physiology. Integrative topics (e.g. circadian rhythms, thermal stress) may also be included. Dual listed with ZOO 4735. Prerequisites: ZOO 3115 or equivalent as approved by the instructor.
-
2.00 Credits
With the advances of technology, confocal microscopy is an increasingly important tool for biological research. Teaches students the basic principles of confocal microscopy and its biological applications. This is a hands-on course and students have the chance to practice on a state-of-the-art confocal microscope. Prerequisites: none.
