4.00 Credits
Computational methods will be used to characterize the annotated genome sequence produced in BIMM 171A-B to study the evolution of genes and their products. Various mechanisms shaping genome evolution will be discussed and the genome evaluated for evidence of these processes. Prerequisites: BIMM 171, BIMM 171A, and BIMM 171B.
-
2.00 Credits
Analyzing Drosophila dot chromosome sequences and making comparisons among species to discern patterns of genome organization related to control of gene expression. Computer analysis of finished sequence data, annotation of genes, assessment of repeats, exploration of evolutionary questions. Prerequisites: BIMM 100, upper-division standing, department authorization.
-

Students will gain experience in the application of existing software, as well as in combining approaches to answer specific biological questions. Sequence alignment, fast database search, profiles and motifs, comparative genomics, gene finding, phylogenetic trees, protein structure, functional characterization of proteins, expression anaylysis, computational proteomics. This course open to bioinformatics majors only. Prerequisites: two courses out of BIMM 181 or BENG 181 or CSE 181, BIMM 182 or BENG 182 or CSE 182, BENG 183, BIMM 184 or BENG 184 or CSE 184. Attendance at the first lecture/lab is required. Nonattendance will result in the student’s being dropped from the course roster.
-
4.00 Credits
This course introduces the concepts of physiological regulation, controlled and integrated by the nervous and endocrine systems. It then examines the muscular, cardiovascular, and renal systems in detail and considers their control through the interaction of nervous activity and hormones. Three hours of lecture and one hour of discussion. Prerequisites: BILD 1; BILD 2.
-
4.00 Credits
This course completes a survey of organ systems begun in BIPN 100 by considering the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems. Consideration is given to interactions of these systems in weight and temperature regulation, exercise physiology, stress, and pregnancy and reproduction. Three hours of lecture and one hour of section per week. Prerequisites: BIPN 100; BIBC 102 may be taken concurrently.
-
6.00 Credits
Experiments are performed on membrane physiology; nerve muscle function; cardiovascular physiology; respiratory, gastrointestinal and renal physiology. Subjects include experimental animals and humans. Prerequisites: BIPN 100 (may be taken concurrently). Three hours of lecture and ten hours of laboratory each week. In addition to the formal lab hours, there will be at least eight hours in which students will be required to work in the class laboratory to complete experiments and prepare for presentations. Attendance at the first lecture/lab is required. Nonattendance will result in the student’s being dropped from the course roster.
-
4.00 Credits
This course examines the physiological adaptation of animals, invertebrates and vertebrates, to their particular environmental and behavioral niches. Structural, functional, and molecular adaptations of the basic organ systems are discussed. Prerequisites: BILD 2, Chem 6A-B-C. BILD 3 is recommended.
