BIO365L - Home
This website is for BIO365L at the University of Texas for Fall 2010, and serves the sections taught by Dr. Markham.
This course offers a unique opportunity for students to record the activity of single neurons in slices of living brain tissue using sophisticated, state-of-the-art equipment and software. It is an intensive course that requires active hands-on participation from all students. It also is a writing intensive course where students will learn and improve skills necessary to write clear and detailed scientific reports.
This course offers you the opportunity to see the concepts you learned in Vertebrate Physiology play out in real-time, in real neurons. It is a chance to test the theories and concepts from your textbooks against real-world experiments.
