Molecular and cellular approaches to reproductive physiology
Instructor: Dr. Susan Quirk
3 credits - Fall Semester
2 Lectures - Tue & Thu at 1:25-2:15
1 Lab - Tue at 2:30-4:25
Prerequisite: One year introductory biology and introductory physiology (AN SC 100 and AN SC 240 or BIOAP311) or equivalent.
Lectures on selected topics in reproductive biology of male and female mammals with a focus on how research questions are formulated, addressed and influenced by previous discoveries. Concepts introduced apply to investigation of all areas of animal physiology. Laboratory exercises provide experience in cellular and molecular methods used to study reproductive function.
