25 courses with the subject CBPH, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
CBPH 243The Cellular Agriculture Revolution3
Learn the foundational biological and chemical processes used to produce cultivated meat. Lectures will cover state-of-the-art techniques for cultivated meat production and will allow you to think critically about the future of food. Weekly guest speakers will expose students to innovative startups and academic researchers establishing a new paradigm for manufacturing sustainable commodity meat products. The course will also introduce the environmental, ethical, and economic drivers behind the mission of alternative protein science and technology.
This class is designed to 1) enhance students' ability to present scientific material to their peers in a comprehensive, cohesive manner, 2) familiarize students with scientific concepts and technologies used in multiple disciplines, 3) expose students to cutting edge research, 4) prepare students to gain substantial meaning from seminars and to ask questions, and 5) enhance students' ability to evaluate scientific papers and seminars.
CBPH 705Improving Presentation & Communication of Scientific Results2
Learning modern day techniques and approaches to convey scientific results effectively as a public speaker. Teaching how to implement the key aspects of effective presentation of scientific findings in public settings. Understanding the key components of an effective public talk including scientific content, body language, and voice. Learning how to captivate the target audience and yet still convey data driven scientific findings.
Practice in oral and written communication evaluated by peers and faculty. Includes delivery of coached presentations on topics in physiology and preparation of writing assignments typically encountered in scientific life.
An intensive and comprehensive hands-on laboratory-oriented course in light microscopy for researchers in biology, medicine, and materials science. This course will focus on advanced quantitative fluorescence microscopy techniques used for imaging a range of biological specimens, from whole organisms, to tissues, to cells, and to single molecules. This course emphasizes the quantitative issues that are critical to the proper interpretation of images obtained with light microscopes.
CBPH 730Fundamentals of Quantitative Image Analysis for Light Microscopy1
This course is a practical introduction to quantitative analysis of light microscopy images. During the class students will follow tutorials that will guide them through common tasks in analysis of biological images. They will be introduced to basic concepts of image processing like image registration, filtering, object detection etc.
Fundamental principles and concepts of human gross anatomy for physical therapists taught by lectures and cadaver dissection. Emphasis on functional anatomy. Three lecture hours and six laboratory hours a week.
Study of basic structure of the brain and spinal cord, including both lecture and laboratory. Primarily for physical therapy students. Four hours a week.
Graduate students only. This course provides an overview of the function and regulation of human body systems. Topics include cellular, muscle, neurological, cardiovascular, and respiratory physiology. Emphasis is placed upon mechanisms of integration and control. Permission of the instructor.
Graduate students only. This course provides an in-depth study of renal physiology, gastrointestinal physiology, endocrine physiology, and reproductive physiology. Students will learn physiologic mechanisms in each of these areas at the molecular, cellular, and system levels of organization. Emphasis will be placed on the integrated functions of organ systems.
CBPH 852Cell Biology and Physiology in Health and Disease I4.5
CBPH 852 provides a broad introduction to cell biology and physiology in the context of human health and disease. Sessions will emphasize the integration of cell biological principles into physiological paradigms, and vise-versa. The course covers fundamental cellular processes such as cell organization, membrane trafficking, protein quality control, cytoskeleton, and cell motility. It also covers the development and function of the nervous and cardiovascular systems, as well as diseases of these organ systems. Journal clubs will enable students to integrate lecture material with published primary research articles (both classic and new studies) that answer important questions using cellular and physiological.
CBPH 853Cell Biology and Physiology in Health and Disease II4.5
This course is ideal for first- or second-year graduate students with an interest in cell biology and physiology in the context of experimental medicine and translational approaches aimed at understanding and treating human diseases. Sessions will emphasize the integration of cell biological principles into physiological paradigms, and vise-versa. The course covers fundamental cellular processes, such as RNA and protein regulation, cell signaling, cell-cell communication, immune regulation, inflammation and fibrosis. Journal clubs will enable students to integrate lecture material with published primary research articles (both classic and new studies) that answer important questions using cellular and physiological systems to advance translational Permission of the instructor.
CBPH 855Career and Research Enhancement Seminar (CaRES)1-2.5
Weekly seminar given by outside investigators from academia or industry; also includes research in progress seminars from current PhD students and their ongoing thesis work. Exposure to modern topics and cutting edge technologies in molecular cell biology and experimental physiology research. Must be an enrolled graduate student. Permission of the director of graduate studies.
CBPH 856Career and Research Enhancement Seminar (CaRES)1-2.5
Weekly seminar given by outside investigators from academia or industry; also includes research in progress seminars from current PhD students and their ongoing thesis work. Exposure to modern topics and cutting edge technologies in molecular cell biology and experimental physiology research. Must be an enrolled graduate student. Permission of the director of graduate studies.
CBPH 890Special Topics in Cell Biology & Physiology1-5
Modern day exploration of topics or methodologies of interest to PhD students in biomedical sciences. New or old relevant technologies/methodologies or subject areas of research, and/or professional skills enhancement will be addressed. This could be either for enhancing knowledge of subject materials or teaching skill sets (e.g., statistics) needed for biomedical researchers.

Elective course in Cell Biology and Physiology offering a series of alternating mini courses. Depending on instructor availability and expertise the student would choose the specific topic course that best aligns with their past educational training and scientific interests and needs. The topic offerings are meant for the typical life science/biology degree postbaccalaureate MS student in health related field. The specific topic offered would vary between Fall and Spring semesters but includes biochemistry, genetics, microbiology/immunology, pharmacology, neuroscience, and research and clinical ethics. For Terminal Masters students in Cell Biology & Physiology.
