An introduction to biochemical and physiological methods used by physiologists in clinical and physiological assessment. These methods include spectrophometric and fluorometric techniques, tissue and blood sampling, cell culture techniques, DNA separation and staining, Western blotting, chromatography, cardiovascular imaging, and body composition imaging and analysis. The course combines lecture and laboratories to illustrate the theoretical and practical aspects of these analytical techniques.

  • This course is unbelievably important for an undergraduate student wanting to do research later in his/her career. All labs taught different techniques that are important to different physiological streams of research. Class + lab sizes are very small allowing for a dynamic learning experience. Make sure you participate at all times to get the best out of this course!

  • Content was great and applicable for a physiology research lab. Lab reports are weekly. Only a certain number were required to be handed in for marks. Lab manual had most of the answers. Fun labs. Guest lectures are great. Be sure to come to lecture and ask lots of questions. Small class size allows for close learning.
