Students work independently, but under the direction of a committee chair and Master's Project committee suggested by the student and chosen in consultation with the department chair or DGS to complete the Master's Project proposed in HP 798. Must be repeated to a maximum of six hours. Prereq: HP 798.
This survey course is designed to introduce students to the health professions through a broadly based context provided by various lecture topics, assigned readings, in-class activities, examinations and one out-of-class written assignment. Trends in health practice, accreditation and certification requirements, health care delivery environments and assumptions about health and disease will be explored in relation to health manpower development.
Independent work devoted to research on specific problems, to challenge the student to synthesize concepts from his total program and relate them to his allied health specialty. Conference, one to three hours per week. May be repeated to a maximum of six credits.
An introductory graduate-level biochemistry course designed to provide a basic knowledge of molecular and biochemical principles necessary for advanced graduate study. Protein structure and function, enzyme catalysis, the generation and storage of metabolic energy, amino acid, nucleotide, and lipid metabolism and biological membranes and transport will be covered.
In introductory graduate-level course focused on molecular biology and genetics (concepts and techniques) necessary for advanced graduate courses. The course will emphasize basic genetic principles and the molecular mechanisms that underlie the regulated expression of genes, including transcription, mRNA processing and translation, as well as mechanisms of DNA replication/repair and recombination. Genetic engineering and other experimental approaches that are critical to molecular biology research will be covered.
Weekly seminar devoted to the presentation and discussion of classic and new research. May be repeated to a maximum of four times; two semesters are required as part of the IBS curriculum.
Individualized laboratory and research experience under the supervision of a faculty member. May be repeated to a maximum of six credit hours. Two semesters required as part of IBS curriculum.
The major emphasis of this course is to develop within students the ability to critically read, evaluate and critique papers in the areas of biochemistry, molecular biology, and genetics. Students will meet weekly for two hours in a small group setting to discuss papers, with all groups reading the same set of papers. Each group of students (5- 6/group) will meet weekly with one faculty member during the course of the semester. Grading will be based on attendance, participation, mock manuscript reviews, and student-led classes.
