THE SCIENCE OF OBESITY AND DIABETES

SURGERY 976
과목 설명

The science of diabetes and obesity as it correlates to the clinical setting. The history of endocrinology and discovery of insulin will provide the basis for understanding hormonal mechanisms controlling fuel metabolism and how these processes become dysfunctional in different disease states. Topics will include pancreatic and extrapancreatic control of metabolism, and diseases linked with obesity, including PCOS, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. Lifestyle, medical, and surgical treatments of obesity and diabetes, including pharmacologic mechanisms of insulin and non-insulin diabetes therapeutics and bariatric surgery, will be highlighted. The public health perspective will shine light on societal factors that influence obesity and diabetes care. Provides an advanced scientific foundation with which to approach evidence-based care and treatment of individuals with obesity and/or diabetes.

ADVANCED NUTRITION: OBESITY AND DIABETES

NUTRSCI 625

Physiology, biochemistry and genetics of human obesity and diabetes. Critical review of current research on their etiology and treatment.

HUMAN ENERGY METABOLISM

NUTRSCI 710

Fundamentals in human macronutrient metabolism and its role in health and disease. Biochemistry and physiology of macronutrient digestion, anabolism, and catabolism. Disorders of energy metabolism (obesity, type 1 and type 2 diabetes, starvation). Metabolic effects of fiber and the microbiota. Body composition and energy assessment. Taught in an online format using lectures, guided readings, and projects.

ENDOCRINOLOGY AND METABOLISM

MEDICINE 720

Provides a broad grounding in endocrinology and metabolism with an emphasis on human and human-related disorders wherever possible. Explores further the physiological and molecular mechanisms by which the endocrine regulation of metabolism acts to preserve mammalian health, and how dysfunction in these mechanisms leads to disease, with an emphasis on diabetes, obesity and hypertension.

FOOD, FASTING & FITNESS

MEDSC-M 772

Organized around biomedical themes including nutrients, the digestive system, the biochemistry and endocrine control of metabolism, exercise and fitness and the removal of waste products and toxins to present an integrated picture of how these systems function together to maintain homeostasis. Integrates developmental content from competency domains, or "longitudinal threads", including communication, patient care, ethics, health information technology, public health, professionalism, quality improvement, patient safety, and scientific inquiry.

MOLECULAR CONTROL OF METABOLISM AND METABOLIC DISEASE

BIOCHEM/NUTRSCI 645

Examination of various physiological states and how they affect metabolic pathways. Discussion of a number of special topics related to the unique roles of various tissues and to metabolic pathways in disease states, including adipocyte biology, beta-cell biology, epigenetics, inflammation, and aging related diseases.
