  • MNEU-N 800 Research in Medical Neurobiology (arr cr.)P: Consent of instructor with whom research is being done. Supervised literature and laboratory research in selected area(s) of medical neurobiology.
  • MNEU-N 801 Seminar: Topics in Medical Neurobiology (1 cr.)Required of all graduate students in program. Recent topics in medical neurobiology covered by literature and research reports and discussions by faculty, graduate students, and invited guest lecturers.
  • MNEU-N 711 Translational Neuroscience (2 cr.)Consideration of the basic neuroscience underlying various disorders from clinical, historical and contemporary genetic views.

Anatomy

  • ANAT-D 527 Neuroanatomy (3 cr.)

Graduate

  • GRDM-G 507 Research Validation as a Mean for Enhanced Research Reproducibility (1 cr.) Designed to provide training for pre-doctoral students in the area of appropriate reagent utilization by focusing on biological variables, with particular attention to murine models, and on biological and chemical resources, with particular attention to cell line authentication, plasmid verification, and antibody utilization. This course will entail a traditional didactic lecture series accompanied by relevant whole-class practical exercises allowing students to implement basic methods of reagent verification
  • GRDM-G 718 Research in Biomedical Science (1-4 cr.): A laboratory research rotation course. Allows incoming basic science doctoral graduate students in the School of Medicine programs to take research rotation in laboratories affiliated with all of the School graduate programs.
  • GRDM-G 745 Fundamentals of Intracellular Signal Transduction in Neurons (1-2 cr.): Experimental basis for cellular and molecular concepts of intracellular signaling cascades activated by multiple processes. The goals are to foster an understanding of how we accumulate information and to provide students with tools to evaluate hypotheses and to define unanswered questions, rather than provide "facts" to memorize
  • GRDM-G 780 Foundations of Neuroscience (6 cr.): This course provides an introduction to the nervous system and its disorders. The course will provide a broad-based introduction to the structure of the nervous system, its cellular composition and mechanisms through which neurons communicate and regulate behavior and cognition. The course incorporates an in-depth analysis of the current literature.
  • GRDM-G 855 Experimental Design and Research 

Pharmacology and Toxicology

  • F-850 Experimental Design Analysis/Grant Writing (1 cr.): Will prepare students for the preparation of an "NIH style" grant proposal, such as that used for NRSA predoctoral fellowship grant. Students will learn how to formulate and present hypotheses, specific aims, and research plans. Students will develop a mini grant proposal and participate in a mock study section.
