A Mixed Course Based Research Approach to Human Physiology
These labs were designed to provide students with hands-on access to modern techniques in human physiological analyses using the course-based research pedagogical approach. Students will learn how to perform literature searches; generate research questions and hypotheses; design experiments; collect, analyze, visualize and interpret data; and present scientific findings to others.
