In this course we will explore the physiological adaptations that allow animals to live in extreme environments, such as long duration migration, high or low temperature, low oxygen, or extreme pressures of the deep oceans. Topics will be student directed, and material will be presented in traditional lectures, through group discussions of primary literature, and through student developed presentations.
