Graduate Reproductive Physiology

Catalog description

In this graduate level vertebrate physiology course, students will learn reproductive anatomy, physiology, development and behavior of a variety of organisms with humans serving as the foundational species. Innate and manipulated physiological mechanisms controlling reproduction will be examined at the molecular through organismal levels with an emphasis on understanding experimental approaches to physiology and reading a variety of scientific literature, from clinical studies to field biology. Students will curate scientific literature readings, teach undergraduates to understand the peer-reviewed literature and develop advanced-level assessments. Students should have previous coursework in physiology.
