-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite: BIOL 245)The physiological principles involved in adaptations of animals to their environment from a comparative viewpoint; osmotic control, temperature regulation, nerve and muscle physiology, sensory perception, etc. Three hours lecture.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite: BIOL 245)The mammalian endocrine system; emphasis on molecular mechanisms of hormone action, feedback control of hormone production, integration with other physiological systems, and reproductive endocrinology. Three hours lecture.Spring only.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite: BIOL 245)Study of anatomical and physiological effects of exercise, centering around control of physical performance by capacity to generate energy through aerobic and anaerobic pathways; includes effects of heredity, age, nutrition, training and environment on performance. Emphasizes the multidimensional role of exercise in weight control, cardiovascular fitness, stress management, fatigue, strength, etc. Three hours lecture/demonstration.Spring, odd years.
-
3.00 Credits
(Prerequisite: BIOL 245, or, for neuroscience majors, PSYC 231)Study of the organization and function of the neuron, neural circuits, and the major sensory and motor components of the central nervous system; bioelectric phenomena, synaptic transmission; the neural basis for higher functions such as cognition, memory, and learning.(Also listed as NEUR 348.)
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisite: BIOL 101 or 141 or permission of instructor; lab is optional)Functional anatomy and physiology of plants, including structure, photosynthesis, respiration, mineral nutrition, water relations, productivity, growth and differentiation, transport, stress physiology, and energy flow. Lab is writing-intensive (W).Three hours lecture, three hours lab.Spring, odd years.
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: BIOL 141-142; requires concurrent enrollment in lecture and lab)Study of structure and function in eukaryotic cells. Emphasis on biomolecules, cell organelles, cell motility, signaling, and cell physiology. The cellular basis of human physiology and disease will also be discussed. Labs focus on experimental studies of cellular structure and function using techniques of modern cell biology. Lab fulfills a writing-intensive (W) requirement. Three hours lecture, three hours lab.
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: BIOL 141-142; requires concurrent enrollment in lecture and lab)Development of vertebrates and invertebrates from gametogenesis through organogenesis. Emphasis on cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in differentiation, morphogenesis, and determination of the body plan. Labs focus on experimentation with living, developing organisms. Three hours lecture, three hours lab.Spring only.
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: BIOL 141-142; BIOL 241 strongly recommended; requires concurrent enrollment in lecture and lab)Microscopic structure and function of the four basic vertebrate tissues. Emphasis will be placed on mammalian tissues. Lectures include historical, theoretical and practical perspectives. Laboratories include examination of tissues through the use of loan sets of slides as well as demonstrations and exercises in basic preparation of tissues for microscopic examination. Three hours lecture, four hours lab.Fall only.
-
5.00 Credits
(Prerequisites: CHEM 232-233, BIOL 352; requires concurrent enrollment in lecture and lab)Microscopic recognition and functional correlations of the major vertebrate organ systems. Enrollment is limited to preserve informal and flexible working conditions appropriate to advanced histological work. This course is customized to the participants’ needs. Options include in-depth training in techniques or in-depth analysis of a particular organ system. Two hours lecture, five hours lab.Spring only.
