Fundamental Electrophysiology

Catalog description

Investigation and study of the concepts and underlying mechanisms associated with electrical signals in mammalian biology and physiology with a significant emphasis on methods, techniques and understanding of electrical potential distribution and current flow derived from circuit analysis. Intended to provide engineers with insight into the relationship between the study of electricity and its applicability to a wide variety of physiological mechanisms ranging from intracellular communication and control to cognitive function and bodily movement. Successful completion of the course will require generation of a significantly in-depth analysis report on some electrophysiological phenomenon or mechanism.
