Strong academic record at the college level.Study the fundamentals of biology while concentrating on: animal physiology biochemistry biodiversity and systematics computational biology ecology & evolutionary biology genetics & development insect biology marine biology microbiology molecular & cell biology neurobiology & behavior nutrition and plant biology. The discussion will be structured around relevant research papers that allow more in-depth analysis of the material taught during lectures. The focus will be placed on mouse and human stem cells. This course will cover basic aspects of tissue morphogenesis and homeostasis with emphasis on the biological role of embryonic and adult stem cells in development, and their possible clinical applications. Students gain experience with experimental design and data collection, field methods, basic statistics, interpretation and evaluation of primary scientific literature and scientific paper writing.īIOMG 4450 – Stem Cell Biology: Basic Science and Clinical Applications Gives students a broad hands-on understanding of tropical biology, ecology and behavioral ecology. Topics include ligand-gated channels, potassium channels, seven membrane spanning receptors, development of the neuromuscular junction, neurotransmitter release, learning and memory, neurodiseases and optogenetics.īIOEE 2650 – Tropical Field Ecology and Behavior Lectures, student presentations and discussions examine original research articles. This course will introduce the microbes of the human body, discuss their origins, adaptations to the body, molecular interactions and associations with health and disease.īIONB 3950 – Molecular and Genetic Approaches to Neuroscienceįocuses on how different molecular and genetic approaches have led to major advances in neuroscience. The human body is coated with microbes outnumbering “our own” cells 10 to 1, providing us with capacities we have not had to evolve on our own.
