    Comprehensive examination of cellular interactions with the extracellular matrix (ECM), as well as anaylsis of the structure and function of the ECM in a variety of tissues. Topics to be covered include: ECM proteins, cell-matris interactions, ECM signaling, mechanics of the ECM, ECM pathology and recent advances in ECM research. Prerequisites/Corequisites: There are no formal prerequisites, but students should have a rudimentary knowledge of cell biology and protein structure (readings to provide this can be requested from the instructor). Limited to students with junior or senior standing. Graduate students must enroll in BIOL 6750 or BMED 6420; both courses may not be taken for credit. When Offered: Spring term (of even numbered years). Cross Listed: Cross-listed with BMED 4420/6420. Credit Hours: 4
  • 1.00 Credits

    Weekly discussion of selected topics in biology by graduate students and staff. When Offered: Fall and spring terms annually. Credit Hours: 1
  • 1.00 - 4.00 Credits

    Readings in the current literature designed to supplement the background of the student and provide greater depth in the area of his or her specialty. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall, spring, and summer terms annually. Credit Hours: 1 to 4
  • 3.00 Credits

    Active participation in a semester-long project, under the supervision of a faculty adviser. A Professional Project often serves as a culminating experience for a Professional Master's program but, with departmental or school approval, can be used to fulfill other program requirements. With approval, students may register for more than one Professional Project. Professional Projects must result in documentation established by each department or school, but are not submitted to the Graduate School and are not archived in the library. Grades of A, B, C, or F are assigned by the faculty adviser at the end of the semester. If not completed on time, a formal Incomplete grade may be assigned by the faculty adviser, listing the work remaining to be completed and the time limit for completing this work.
  • 1.00 - 9.00 Credits

    Active participation in research, under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a master's thesis. Grades of IP are assigned until the thesis has been approved by the faculty adviser and accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in a standard format in the library. Grades will then be listed as S. Credit Hours: 1 to 9
  • 3.00 Credits

    Active participation in research, under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a doctoral dissertation. Grades of IP are assigned until the dissertation has been publicly defended, approved by the doctoral committee, and accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in a standard format in the library. Grades will then be listed as S. Credit Hours: Variable
