BIOT 753/853: Cell Culture

Fundamental biological principles that underlie cell culture and its applications are the foundation of the lecture component of this course. Applications of cell culture techniques to current research areas in academic and biopharmaceutical settings are discussed. This course has both lab and lecture sections and is offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

BIOT 780/880: Techniques in Microscopy and Image Analysis

Laboratory course focused on application of microscopy techniques (light, fluorescent, confocal) and the subsequent analysis strategies for investigating biological specimens. Special focus is directed towards cellular microscopy-based assays, both structural and functional. Image analysis topics will touch on filtering, segmentation, and registration. This course has both lab and lecture sections and is offered at both undergraduate and graduate levels.

BSCI 797/BIOT 897- SPECIAL TOPICS IN BIOLOGY: NEUROBIOTECHNOLOGY

Seminar-style course focused around the questions: Why is the human brain so difficult to understand? When scientists uncover basic science principles of the neuron, how does that scale up to system-wide understanding or to clinical treatments? The instruments that help us investigate the function of an individual neuron are very different from the instruments needed to parse subjective human experience. This notion of scale, in both time and space, will be integral to exploring the obstacles of neuroscience research and to surveying the neurobiotech tools that help answer these difficult questions.
