Class Objectives
/Class Outline This class will focus on the understanding of brain and nervous system, circulation, respiration, gas exchange, sensory and morter mechanism, movement and locomotion, and behavior biology in animal by following each chapter appeared in the text, Biology (edited by Campbell and Reece).

Class Schedule Lesson 1: Fundamentals of Neurobiology (1): Fundamentals of nervous system and neuropeptides
Lesson 2: Fundamentals of Neurobiology (2): Diversity in the structure and function of neuropeptides.
Lesson 3: Fundamentals of Neurobiology (3):  Neural regulation of homeostasis via neuropeptides.
Lesson 4: Sensory and motor mechanism, part A
Lesson 5: Sensory and motor mechanism, part B
Lesson 6: Technological advances in the animal physiology research, part A
Lesson 7: Technological advances in the animal physiology research, part B
Lesson 8: Technological advances in the animal physiology research, part C
Lesson 9: Animal behaviors, part A
Lesson 10: Animal behaviors, part B
Lesson 11: Animal behaviors, part C
Lesson 12: Circulation and respiration, part A
Lesson 13: Circulation and respiration, part B
Lesson 14: Circulation and respiration, part C
Lesson 15: General discussion and concluding remarks

The teacher will ask students reports at the end of each lesson.

Some or all of lessons will be held by an intensive course. Detailed information will be given before the start of the term.

Text/Reference
Books,etc. We use textbook "Biology" from Pearson Education, edited by Campbell and Reece.
