NEURO 371 - Cellular and Molecular Neuroscience

3 units (fi 6)(FIRST, 3-0-0)

Lectures presented by the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry and the Faculty of Science. Topics include structure and function of nerve cell membranes, ion channels, neurotransmitters and their receptors, intracellular signaling systems, synaptic mechanisms and communication, plasticity, gene regulation and development and the physiology of small neural networks underlying discrete behaviours. Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying brain dysfunctions implicated in specific disorders of the central nervous system will also be discussed to illustrate the clinical relevance of basic neuroscience. Prerequisite: PHYSL 210, or PHYSL 212 and 214, or ZOOL 241 and 242. Students who have taken ZOOL 342 or PHYSL 371 may not receive credit in NEURO 371.

PHYSL 310 - Experimental Techniques in Physiology

3 units (fi 6)(EITHER, 1-0-6)

Modern techniques in Physiology (involving cell biology, molecular, histological and live cell imaging, and non-invasive experimentation) will be discussed in theory and demonstrated/utilized in a series of laboratory experiments. Student participation as subjects may be required in some labs. Prerequisites: Successful completion of PHYSL 210 or PHYSL 212 and 214 and consent of Department.
