Courses

This course introduces various fundamental algorithms and computational concepts for solving questions in bioinformatics and functional genomics. These include graph algorithms, dynamic programming, combinatorial algorithms, randomized algorithms, pattern matching, classification and clustering algorithms, hidden Markov models and more. Each concept will be introduced in the context of a concrete biological or genomic application.

Candidates will develop and practice concepts, content, skills, and pedagogy associated with algebraic concepts, assessment, and meeting the needs of diverse learners with an emphasis on dyscalculia.

Laboratory course for the second semester of a two-semester introductory sequence in algebra/trigonometry-based physics. Student must pass this laboratory course to receive a passing grade in the PH 115 course. Students must take PH 115L concurrently with PH 115 and pass the lab. The PH 115L grade is a component of the PH 115 course grade.

Laboratory course for the first semester of a two-semester introductory sequence in algebra/trigonometry-based physics. Student must pass this laboratory course to receive a passing grade in the PH 114 course. Students must take PH 114L concurrently with PH 114 and pass the lab. The PH 114L grade is a component of the PH 114 course grade.

Students train with specialty physicians who care for patients with abnormalities and inpatient admissions and/or consultations. Students engage with patients with their Attending physician to reason through differential diagnoses and conditions. Credit: 1-4.

The course is designed around the outpatient clinic and inpatient consults. Outpatient clinic focuses on management of a wide variety allergic disease (including asthma, allergic rhinitis, food allergy, urticaria, and eczema) and immunodeficiency. Students will have an opportunity to participate in diagnostic/therapeutic procedures such as skin testing, food challenges and spirometry. The consult service covers USAMC, USACW, and MIMC.

Covers setting up equipment and performing cutting and gouging operations utilizing the oxyacetylene, air carbon arc, exothermic, and plasma arc cutting processes. This course will also provide an introduction to blueprint reading.

(3 clock hour lecture period per week and 3 clock hour lab period per week). The biology of microorganisms and their interactions with humans. The emphasis is on microbes with medical and/or public health significance.
