Biology Courses Take the following two required introductory biology courses: BIOL 225: Molecules, Cells and Organisms BIOL 226: Genes, Evolution, Diversity and Ecology You might also consider some
courses: BIOL 330: Genetics BIOL 341: Developmental Biology BIOL 342: Microbiology BIOL 352: Comparative Anatomy BIOL 357: Histology BIOL 442: Cell Biology BIOL 453: Mammalian Physiology Check the websites of those institutions you plan on applying and determine whether there are particular upper division courses that they require or recommend.Physics Courses PLU has two introductory physics series. Students interested in medical school should take the sequence that is required for their intended

TACOMA, WASH. (Oct. 6, 2017)- When George and Helen Long reached out to Pacific Lutheran University 10 years ago, all they knew was that they wanted to support the sciences. “George sort of felt like he owed his success and his career to PLU,” said…
had never done anything remotely medical until this internship,” she said. “It’s really more the anatomy, physiology side of it that I really like.”Haley Hurtt '18 Photo by Oliver Johnson '18 This summer, English literature major Haley Hurtt ’18 became well acquainted with her U.S. senators. Or at least their voicemails. Hurtt was an intern for the global poverty nonprofit, The Borgen Project. She was responsible for calling her senators every week and raising at least $500, but her main job was

the anatomy and physiology of the sexual response cycle and the biological and psychological determinants of sexual functioning will be considered. Students will learn to conduct a sexual history, considering the impact of larger contextual issues. Models of couples therapy will also be taught with attention to addressing sexual issues as another form of couple process.

Pacific Lutheran University Assistant Professor of Biology Lathiena Nervo was recently named one of Cell Mentor’s “1,000 inspiring Black scientists in America.” A developmental biologist in her second year at PLU, Nervo is equally passionate about teaching, biological research, and increasing diverse representation in science.…
—I like to bring those to my work as well.What are you most interested in as a biologist? I am a developmental biologist. The thing I love about developmental biology is that you’re a jack of all trades. It’s a mix of molecular, genetics, cell biologies, anatomy and physiology. It’s all these different biology disciplines merged into one. A few decades ago it would have been called embryology. I’m really interested in cell interactions and how cells actually communicate with each other while an

Students are encouraged to do research with a faculty member during their undergraduate experience at PLU.
systems. Much of my past research has focused on interactions between herbivores and algae in marine systems. This has included studies of geographical gradients of herbivorous fish diversity and how temperature effects on physiology may play a role in driving this pattern and the effects of fisheries and disease on sea urchins and kelp forest ecology. My current research projects include studies of the community ecology of rocky shores of Puget Sound, disease ecology of sea urchins, and larval

Examination Guidelines This policy applies to the core prelicensure nursing courses – N305, N306, N307, N311, N314, N315, N401, N402, and N406 only. Adherence to these guidelines are not required in other prelicensure nursing courses. Exam items will be derived from the course Learning Outcomes which support overall BSN Program Outcomes and Nursing Competencies. Each...
expectations from previous courses within the Nursing Program and pre-requisite courses, such as Anatomy and Physiology. Course Exams administered in nursing courses will maximally account for 80% of the total course points. Weighting of exams and other assignments is established in the criteria for grade determination found in each course syllabus. Students must achieve an overall course exam straight (not weighted) average of 75% or higher to pass the course. Grades from other assignments will then be

Elizabeth Kaley, Senior Capstone Seminar With the rapid industrialization and heavy reliance on fossil fuels the concentration of Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth’s atmosphere has exponentially
into an essential tool for the diagnosis of human disease. Over the past two decades advances in biochemistry, physiology, genetics, physics, and engineering have converged to produce detailed anatomic and functional, physiologic imaging of disease at increasingly greater levels of detail and specificity. The advancements in medical imaging are leading to earlier detection of disease, when many disease are usually more easily treated and there is greater chance for cure; development of minimally
