3.00 Credits
This course combines classical and molecular biological approaches to the study of plant growth and development. Topics covered in this course include: plant morphology, axis developement in plants, plant patter formation, and the molecular genetic of plant growth and development. Three hours of lecture per week.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will impart basic principles of environmental toxicology, focusing on toxicological assessment, types and mechanisms of toxicological response, the properties and effects of specific groups of toxicants released into the environment, and an overview of current issues facing the rather broad field of environmental toxicology.
-
3.00 Credits
Topics include genes and genomes, transcription, translation, the control of gene expression by prokaryotes, and eukaryotes, DNA synthesis and repair, and cell signaling.
-
3.00 Credits
The study and application of biostatistics and probability distributions in biology, for students who already have a working knowledge of statistics and want to understand the place and application of biostatistical methods in science. Topics include hypothesis testing, analysis of variance for one and many variables, and linear and nonlinear regression.Three hours of class per week.
-
3.00 Credits
This course offers the structure and function of proteins, polynucleic acids, and biological membranes. Enzymes and kinetics are also taught. Metabolic pathways, with emphasis on the thermodynamics of the equilibria and the storage and usage of energy are also discussed.

-
2.00 Credits
An advanced laboratory course for junior or senior science majors who wish to gain theoretical and practical experience with the techniques and equipment commonly used in the fields of cellular biology, molecular biology, and biochemistry. Topics include PCR, electrophoresis, enzyme kinetics, aseptic cell and tissue culture, cell surface receptors, and molecular modeling. Five-hour laboratory with one-hour pre-lab lecture each week.
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to computer-aided analysis of gene sequences and their relationships to DNA, RNA, and proteins. Topics include use of the computer for restriction mapping, primer selection, and database searches for homology discovery. In addition, students will be able to carry out analyses aimed at predicting the structure and evolution of macromolecules. Three hours of class per week.
-
3.00 Credits
Study of computational techniques of importance in contemporary drug design. Topics include molecular docking, ligand binding free energy calculations, de novo drug design, pharmacophore elucidation, quantitative structure-activity relations, and combinatorial library design. Cross-listed as BIO 452 and CHM 452.
-
3.00 Credits
Lectures and/or laboratories in selected areas of contemporary biology, with a focus of recent research. Prerequisite(s): Graduate standing.
