This course is designed to study the fundamental concepts of human physiology-including neural, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, endocrine and sensory systems- using hands-on experiments and computer simulations. Students' EKGs, blood pressure, respiratory volume and reflexes will be measured and analyzed. This course is for students wishing to pursue PT and OT professional programs. Prerequisites: BIOL 2341 and BIOL 2141, and permission of instructor. Laboratory fee.

Students will conduct biological research under the supervision of a faculty member. Students will be expected to keep a research notebook according to standard laboratory practices and may be required to submit a research proposal at the discretion of the faculty member. A final written report of work accomplished will be required. A minimum of 3 clock hours of laboratory per week will be required for each semester hour of credit.
