MCB 236

A graduate course, MCB 236 (CCN: 59656), involves the same lectures and exams as 136, but replaces the discussion section with a weekly seminar (TBA) in which primary research literature in various areas of physiology is examined.  It is limited to 10 students and provides 5 units of graduate credit.  Any non-lecture topics covered in the 136 discussion sections will also be presented in the 236 seminar.

Textbook:

Human Physiology, 4^th ed. — Dee Silverthorn
 

A Course Reader (soft-bound, ~400 pages), considered necessary for the course, will be available (at Copy Central, 48 Shattuck Square) on January 22 for about $25.  It follows the lectures more closely than the main textbook and takes a more quantitative approach to the topics.
