Topics course.: Recently there has been a surge in our understanding of the biochemical and molecular bases of neurological disorders. This seminar will explore how protein misfolding relates to a number of neuronal diseases, for example spongiform encephalopathies (e.g. 'mad cow'), Lou Gehrig's, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's.  Pre-requisite: BIO 202 or 230.

Investigations of biochemical systems using experimental techniques in current biochemical research. Emphasis is on independent experimental design and execution. BCH 352 is a prerequisite or must be taken concurrently.

Chemical dynamics in living systems. Enzyme mechanisms, metabolism and its regulation, energy production and utilization. Prerequisites: BCH 252 and CHM 224. Laboratory (353) must be taken concurrently by biochemistry majors; optional for others.

We have entered a new geological epoch, the Anthropocene, characterized by the accelerating impact of human activities on the Earth’s ecosystems. All over the globe, humans have transformed the environment and have sometimes created catastrophic dynamics within social-ecological systems. Scientists have studied these phenomena for decades, alerting both the general public and policy-makers of the consequences of our actions. However, despite convincing evidence of environmental degradation, humans continue to radically transform their environment.
