Protein Research Methods — BIO4109.01

Instructor: Amie McClellan
Days & Time: WE 2:10pm-5:50pm
Credits: 4

Research questions in cell biology and biochemistry often require the ability to study the proteins at the heart of the inquiry.  This course will give students hands-on experience quantifying proteins, detecting protein expression, measuring enzymatic activity, assessing protein-protein interactions, purifying proteins, and visualizing fluorescently-labeled proteins in vivo.

Scanning Electron Microscopy Research Methods — ES4107.01

Instructor: Tim Schroeder
Days & Time: TU 2:10pm-4:00pm
Credits: 2

Scanning electron microscopes are a fundamental tool in the physical and life sciences. When equipped with an X-Ray spectrometer, a SEM can provide rapid physical and chemical data of specimens on extremely small scales. This class with cover the theory and practical applications of SEM imaging and analysis for advanced science students who have their own research interests. Students will be expected to develop and conduct an independent research project through this class.
