An in-depth study of macronutrient metabolism and how it can be influenced by nutrition in both ruminant and non-ruminant species. Students will learn the important principles of macronutrient metabolism in domestic animals through lectures, evaluation of the current scientific literature and presentations.
To introduce the student to the principles and application of kinesiologic electromyography (EMG). Kinesiological EMG research incorporates the study of human movement with direct assessment of the muscles involved with human motion. The primary aim for this course is to provide the student with background and practical knowledge of kinesiological EMG in order to be able to perform and critically analyze kinesiological EMG studies. Students will enhance their understanding of neuromuscular properties of skeletal musculature.
