BIOLOGY 550: Animal Behavior
0.00 Credits
University of Massachusetts Amherst
Our first goal in this course will be to examine the mechanisms that underlie the expression of behavior. For example, how do predators locate prey, how do animals avoid becoming prey, and how do animals navigate through their worlds? To help answer these questions we will apply neurobiological, hormonal, genetic, and developmental perspectives. Our next goal in the course will be to examine the evolutionary bases of behavior, asking for example why animals move, forage, hide, communicate, and socialize as they do. To address these questions we make use of optimality theory and other behavioral ecological perspectives. Other topics in the course will include sexual selection, human behavior, and the role of behavior in establishing biodiversity. When taken with Biology 494LI, this course satisfies the Integrative Experience requirement for BA-Biol and BS-Biol students. Prerequisite: an introductory biology or psychology course.

BIOLOGY 559: Cellular & Molecular BiologyII
3.00 Credits
University of Massachusetts Amherst
This course is divided into 3 parts. Each part will include content-based learning in which we examine several aspects of cell biology using lectures, discussion of experimental results and materials from the textbook. Topics will include exocytosis, actin & microtubule cytoskeleton, motors, and mitosis. Each part will also include inquiry-based learning where you will work in groups on a short research project to understand the cellular and molecular basis of a human genetic disease. Each group will investigate 3 aspects of their assigned disease: (1) the cell biology of the organelle or process that is disrupted, (2) the gene product that is defective, and (3) the experimental methods that scientists are using to understand, treat or cure the disease. This inquiry-based learning will culminate in each group presenting their work to the class and writing a short report summarizing their findings.
