Intro Lab Tech and Biomedicine

Catalog description

Students who register for PHS 802 must also register for a PHS 802 laboratory ( PHS 802L ). This lab is designed to engage students in fundamentals of laboratory procedures, such as pipetting, preparation of buffers, animal handling, dosing, protein and enzyme assays, recording and interpretation of experimental data and results and calculations. These skills are further developed in PHS 306 in later semesters and will help students that are preparing to become scientists in the biopharmaceutical field. Each week, students will perform a laboratory exercise. A pre-laboratory lecture is included to familiarize students with the concepts and expectations of the laboratory exercise scheduled for the subsequent lab.
