-
1.00 Credits
The course provides an introduction to the principles of ethical conduct of research including scientific integrity and relevant human subjects and animal use regulations. The course will be taught using a case-study method where students will read and discuss situations that they might encounter in the practice of research. Prerequisites: Second year graduate student status. Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Current topics related to basic processes of molecular aspects of differentiation and development in living cells.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to extend the concepts introduced in Cell Biology and Genetics and apply them to a well-known human disease. Cancel Biology covers current concepts and knowledge of cancer, including cancer research and cancer treatment. The course will explore the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cancer development with the aim of understanding how changes in the normal growth and division processes lead to the formation of tumors. Lecture topics include the natural history of cancer, oncogenes, tumor suppressors, cancer-causing viruses, signal transduction, other genetic alterations in cancer, epidemiology, health care policy, and current therapeutic approaches to cancer treatment.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
Pathophysiology is the study of abnormal function in living tissue. This course describes the basic biology of various disease processes, building upon the knowledge gained in Genetics, Cell Biology, and Principles of Physiology. Physiological principles underlying the causes, signs, symptoms, and pattern of development of human disease will be examined. Building upon a basic background in human biology, the manifestations of various human diseases will be explained by the way these diseases disrupt normal physiology, anatomy, and biochemistry. Knowing how diseases disrupt normal physiology will also help in understanding the rationale behind many types of treatment. Health disparities will also be addressed.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed for graduate students in the life sciences who are interested in becoming familiar with the structure and function of the vertebrate nervous system at both the gross and microstructure levels. The course will include computer exercises and microscopic examinations.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed for graduate students in the life sciences who are interested in learning the current state of scientific knowledge about neurotransmitters, their receptors and cellular effectors, and their relationship to disease. The course will help students understand the history and development of the current understanding of the chemistry of the nervous system by presenting some of the experimental evidence on which the knowledge is based.Credit, three hours.
-
0.00 - 3.00 Credits
This is a three credit graduate lecture course on embryonic development that will address further aspects of neurogenesis and stem cell development. Restricted to Biology and Neuroscience gradaute students.
-
3.00 Credits
The course will emphasize the role of micro organisms in the diseases of man. The history of microbiology and the anatomy, physiology, ecology, and applications of bacteria will be emphasized.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The course is designed for graduate students in the life sciences who are interested in learning the current state of scientific knowledge of the physiology of nerve, muscle, and sensory cells. The course will help students understand the history and development of the current understanding of excitable cell physiology by presenting some of the experimental evidence on which the knowledge is based.Credit, three hours.
-
3.00 Credits
The course offers a study of cellular, humoral, and molecular aspects of immune reactions. There will be an introduction to immunobiology and immunochemistry. The use of antigen antibody reactions will be emphasized.Credit, three hours.
