Human Biology: Birth through Aging   3.00   01/14/2019   05/11/2019   Lecture

A one semester survey course for students having limited exposure to previous academic science courses. The structure and function of the principle organ systems and the means by which these body systems change with age are emphasized; many physiological concepts are explored in more detail through hands on laboratory exercises. The concept of homeostasis and the effects of development and aging on the ability to maintain homeostasis are unifying themes of this course; thus, common pathologies as well as the impact of the environment and of heredity on the quality of life are interjected as topics and time permit.
