This course is designed to give students a comprehensive foundation in human reproductive physiology through a variety of learning modalities. The course focuses primarily on normal physiology of human reproductive systems, although some lecturers will introduce pathologies as a way to strengthen subject matter understanding. This course aims to deepen student knowledge of reproductive systems down to the cellular and molecular level in order to 1) connect them with their own physiology, and 2) broaden their understanding of the biological systems integral to the human experience. The course material will provide students with foundational knowledge in reproductive physiology that will help prepare them for medical school, biomedical research, and careers in the field of reproductive sciences. This course is intended for students in the master of reproductive sciences program, DBBS and BME graduate students, and advanced biology/pre-health undergraduate students with an interest in reproductive physiology. Prerequisites: Biol 2960, Biol 2970, at least two advanced Biology courses. (Biology Major Area B)
Course Attributes: BU SCI
