​

Human Evolutionary Anatomy and Physiology Lab

Harvard University

​

This course explores human anatomy and physiology from an integrated framework, combining functional, comparative, and evolutionary perspectives on how organisms work. Major topics, which follow a life-course framework, include embryogenesis, metabolism and energetics, growth and development, movement and locomotion, food and digestion, stress and disease, and reproduction. Also considered is the relevance of human biology to contemporary issues in human health and biology. Undergraduate course.

Mammalian Physiology Lab

Auburn University

​

This course is a discussion of membrane physiology, muscle physiology, neurophysiology, cardiovascular physiology, renal physiology, respiratory physiology, endocrinology, and digestive physiology. Mammalian physiology includes a general overview of the function of the major systems in animals, including evolution and adaptation to specific environments. Undergraduate and graduate course.

Biostatistics Lab

Juniata College
