SEMINAR IN ENDOCRINOLOGY-REPRODUCTIVE PHYSIOLOGY

ANSCI/OBS&GYN/ZOOLOGY 954

Promotes scientific and professional development. Presenters develop and deliver research presentations to a scientific audience, field questions, and receive critiques about their presentation style and scientific approach. Additional presentations include professional development, career advancement opportunities, and topics of interest to the endocrinology and reproduction community at large.

REPRODUCTIVE ENDOCRINE PHYSIOLOGY

OBS&GYN 710

A broad grounding in reproductive endocrine physiology at the graduate level, with an emphasis on human and human reproductive health wherever possible. Encompasses an overview of fundamental concepts in endocrinology, the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, steroidogenesis, early embryonic development, pregnancy and maternal-fetal adaptations, and pathologies associated with endocrine disruption and dysregulation. Provides more focus on pathologic pregnancies because such pregnancies lead to a higher risk of adult onset diseases including hypertension, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Covers pregnancy and pathologic pregnancy in detail.

CRITICAL THINKING IN REPRODUCTIVE ENDOCRINE PHYSIOLOGY

OBS&GYN 712

Provides advanced learning opportunities in Endocrinology and Reproductive Physiology areas, particularly reproduction, emphasizing human health whenever possible. Explores scientific questions core to the ERP graduate training program and teaches how to communicate research findings as presentations. Skills developed include information discovery; organization of papers and identification of argument(s); and creation of documents/reports. Students are the driving force behind achievement of the learning objectives by undertaking learning activities, actively engaging in their peers' activities, and providing constructive feedback to their peers. Prior completion ofOBS&GYN 710recommended but not required.
