Courses taught

Spring Semester

BIO 734 Molecular Biology of Inflammatory Pathways

The course looks at inflammatory pathways as essential primary defense mechanisms in organisms. Chronic inflammation and their effects on diseased states. Molecular biology and biochemical basis of inflammatory pathways in normal body defense mechanisms and diseases etiology.

BIO 252 Physiology

A comprehensive course aiming to provide advanced knowledge on human physiology with an emphasis on physiological genomics. Physiological genomics is an emerging field that entails study of an organism's complete set of DNA, rather than the study of a single gene or a family of functionally or structurally related genes. Students are expected to gain comprehensive knowledge in understanding the relationship of genes to complex physiological functions.
