BIOL 420 - Advanced Topics in Cell Biology(4.00) Contemporary problems of structure and function at the cellular level through a critical examination of the current literature. The course includes some lecture, with an emphasis on the experimental basis of current knowledge, but primarily emphasizes discussion and/or presentations by students on selected topics. The subtopics covered during Contemporary problems of structure and function at the cellular level through a critical examination of the current literature. The course includes some lecture, with an emphasis on the experimental basis of current knowledge, but primarily emphasizes discussion and/or presentations by students on selected topics. The subtopics covered during any semester vary according to recent developments in the field and according to the interests of the students and faculty. General topic areas might include: structure and function of biomembranes; composition, structure and replication of chromosomes; assembly, growth and reproduction of cytoplasmic organelles; cellular growth and division; regulation of cellular function; nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions; cytoskeletal structure and assembly; role of epigenetics and/or small RNAs in regulating cell function; virology; cellular aging. Note May be repeated for credit with different topic. [4]
