Agricultural Science and Policy I
This course highlights the significance of natural resource preservation for making sure healthy agricultural, food and environmental systems, as well as the variety of approaches for putting into practice it. This course, the first of two semesters, focuses on soils, water, air and energy. The second semester investigates into plant nutrients, plant- pest interaction, crop breeding, and livestock production.
Agricultural Science and Policy II
This course, semester two of a yearlong course, highlights the significance of natural resource preservation for making certain healthy agricultural, food and environmental systems, as well as the variety of approaches for applying it.
Basic Human Pathology: Parts I and II
Basic Human Pathology is a fundamental sciences course that conversions between the basic and clinical sciences. This course provides as a base for other courses and aids in the understanding of managing patients, predominantly as more aged patients with complex medical histories continue to seek usual dental care.
This interdepartmental course explores the versatile ways in which water and human health are interrelated. This includes the influence of waterborne pathogens on human and environmental health, as well as by recognizing the central role of water in safeguard health through sufficient cleanliness and hygiene. Above and beyond this classic lens for examining water and health, the course explores social, economic, and behavioral dimensions in a international context. The course allows participants to become familiar with different disciplinary approaches for addressing the biological linkages between water and health.
This course updates and substitutes Three-Dimensional Modeling, Animation and Rendering Using Blender 3D Software (2006), formerly on Tufts OCW. In this course we will search basic mesh modeling, applying textures and materials to 3-D objects, lighting, animation and rendering. This course should give a good basis for further independent study in architectural, engineering, and theatrical modeling and game design. This course is self-paced, meaning that you can pick and choose the Learning Units, Video Tutorials or PDF tutorials as you see fit.
Cardiovascular Pathophysiology
In the second year Introduction to Cardiovascular Pathophysiology course, students will be launched to the pathophysiologic basis for widespread cardiovascular diseases. This comprises the basics of hemodynamic perturbations and congenital and arrhythmic disorders of the heart. Students are also introduced to the spectrum of coronary disease and cardiomyopathies as well as the basics of vascular diseases.
Contemporary Biosocial Problems in America
This course examines the application of fundamental biological ideas to recent social problems in America, in particular, the intersection of biological theories and social beliefs. Among the major issues examined are the ideological uses of science, the biological basis of sex roles and homosexuality, behavioral genetics, evolutionary psychology, and the meaning of race in medical practice. This course will stress the analysis of facts in the original scientific literature and a critical reading of how science is reported in the press.
Epidemiology and Biostatistics
This course educates the fundamental skills needed to critique the medical literature by providing a fundamental understanding of epidemiology and biostatistics. Physicians have an obligation to remain present in their field of practice and to treat patients according to accepted standards of care. This requires reading those journals that are considered the most important sources of new information in your field of medicine.
Epidemiology and Biostatistics 2010
The most important purpose of this course is to teach you the skills to read, understand and critique the medical literature.
This course provides an outline of the role of force in intercontinental politics. It examines the situations under which states and non-state actors use force of the risk of force to advance their interests and increase their security. The course consists of Part I, which reviews systemic theories on the causes of war and their implications for current U.S. grand strategy, Part II, which examines theories and practice of coercion, and Part III, which examines current security challenges.
Foundations of Nutrition Science
This course provides an understanding of fundamental human nutrition science to students with a limited scientific background.
Gastrointestinal Pathophysiology
This course reviews the pathophysiology of ordinary gastrointestinal conditions, and assumes a general understanding of gastrointestinal physiology. The materials presented in this course are a foundation for further learning in Gastroenterology. The course follows an organ based structure to include disorders of the esophagus, stomach and duodenum, small intestines, pancreas, biliary system, and liver.
Medical genetics involves the application of genetic principles in the practice of medicine. Medical genetics encompasses diagnosis and treatment of genetic diseases, study of inheritance of diseases in families, mapping of disease genes to their chromosome locations, study of the molecular genetics and pathogenesis of hereditary disorders, provision of genetic counseling for families, and recently, investigations of methods for gene therapy. The field of Human Genetics has expanded exponentially over the past twenty-five years. Unlike any other field, genetics represents a true integration between the basic and the clinical sciences.
