BILD 005 Data Analysis & Design for Biologists
Introduction to information literacy, experimental design, and data analysis for biologists, including coding, data management, and quantitative analysis. Practical skills related to effectively asking and answering biological questions with data.
BIPN 100 Human Physiology I
Concepts of physiological regulation, controlled and integrated by the nervous and endocrine systems. Structure and function of the muscular, cardiovascular, and renal systems in detail and their control through the interaction of nervous activity and hormones.
BIPN 102 Human Physiology II
(Starting Summer 2027) Completes the survey of organ systems begun in BIPN 100 by considering the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems, and the interactions of these systems in weight and temperature regulation, exercise physiology, stress, and metabolism.
BIPN 103 Human Anatomy w/ Lab
Tour of the human body, emphasizing the cellular and structural organization of the major organ systems. Covers the skeletal, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems.
BIPN 104 Physiological Inquiry
(Starting Summer 2027) Analysis of primary literature in physiology and clinical case studies. Emphasis on analyzing research data, developing critical thinking skills, and applying physiological principles to understand scientific discoveries and human health.
BGGN 277 Integrative Anatomy, Physiology, Pathophysiology
(Starting Spring 2027) Third course in a year-long sequence for master’s students. Integrates advanced human anatomy and physiology with pathophysiological mechanisms of disease. Emphasis on digestive, renal, and gastrointestinal systems, and multisystem processes and disorders.
