t ypically teach the following courses over a two year period:
BIO305 Cell Physiology. This course focuses on those aspects of the cell that occur outside the nucleus. Topics include metabolism, signal transduction, excitable membranes, organelle function, intracellular trafficking and basic elements of molecular genetics. Offered usually every fall. BIO380
Neurobiology. This course focuses on the cellular and molecular
aspects of nerve cells. Where appropriate it will place these within
the context of the nervous system in which they operate. Course
topics will include the general properties of excitable membranes,
the unique properties and structures of nerve cells, cell:cell communication
pathways, nerve development, neurophysiology and neural nets. (alternate
years; next time offered Spring, 2000) BIO220 Introduction to the Biology of the Cell. This course focuses on cellular and molecular biology topics in an introductory fashion. BIO119 Issues in Biology:Disease This course is a nonmajors course that will look at how disease has impacted human society. It will introduce students to the study of microbes, the human immune system and several disease life cycles. It will emphasize the potential for evolutionary changes in disease microbes due to human action. (offered every other year; Spring 1999)
