Fall 2020:
BIO5900/8900 Séminaire de maîtrise et doctorat / M.Sc./ Ph.D. Seminar (English/French)
Obligatoire à la maîtrise et au doctorat. L'obtention de crédit est fondée sur la présentation d'un séminaire jugé satisfaisant par le personnel et sur la participation à l'ensemble du cours. / Compulsory for all MSc/PhD students. For unit, each student must present one/two seminar(s) judged to be satisfactory by the staff and must participate in the course as a whole.
BIO4146 Ecotoxicology (English)
Explores the challenges of moving from testing toxic chemicals on single organisms in the laboratory to assessing the effects of toxic chemicals on ecosystems. The influence of food chain processes, photochemistry, and other natural processes (sedimentation, volatilization, etc) will be discussed.
Winter 2020:
BIO2510: Physiologie environnementale (Français)
Ce cours examine comment un organisme isolé et en santé réagit aux paramètres physico-environnementaux naturels et anthropogéniques tels la température, l'eau, le pH, les radiations électromagnétiques incluant les rayons ultraviolets, les gaz, la pression et les métaux lourds. Les réponses primaires et secondaires aux divers stress ainsi que l'homéostasie seront examinées. Ce cours est destiné principalement aux étudiants inscrits dans le programme des Sciences Environnementales.Fall 2019:
Fall 2019:
BIO4220A: 4th Year Honours Seminar / Cellular and Molecular Biology (English)
Through lectures, student seminars, and/or group discussions, students learn how to critically evaluate the quality of the science in research publications.
BIO4546 Écotoxicologie (Français)
Ce cours explore les difficultés liées à la compréhension de l'impact des substances chimiques toxiques sur les écosystèmes alors que la recherche sur ces substances se fait surtout en laboratoire sur des organismes. L'impact de processus propres à la chaîne alimentaire, la photochimie ainsi que d'autres processus naturels (sédimentation, volatilisation, etc.) seront étudiés.
CMM 8300 Special Topics in Reproductive and Developmental Biology - Co-Instructor (English)
This advanced level course will provide in-depth study of current topics in reproductive and developmental biology, with emphasis on state-of-the-art molecular and cell biology techniques as well as their applications to reproductive diseases. Seminars and discussion sessions will have a student-centered self-study thrust. The course is team-taught with experts in the various fields of reproduction and developmental biology. Please note: It is recommended that students have taken a 4000- or 5000-level course that includes reproductive physiology.
Winter 2019:
BlO4146: Ecotoxicology (English)
Explores the challenges of moving from testing toxic chemicals on single organisms in the laboratory to assessing the effects of toxic chemicals on ecosystems. The influence of food chain processes, photochemistry, and other natural processes (sedimentation, volatilization) will be discussed.
BIO2110: Environmental Physiology (English)
How representative individual healthy organisms respond to various natural or anthropogenic physical environmental parameters such as temperature, water, pH, electromagnetic radiation including UV, gases, pressure and heavy metals. Primary and secondary stress responses and homeostasis will be considered throughout. This course is intended primarily for students enrolled in the Environmental Science program.Summer 2018:
BIO8102: L'épigénétique moléculaire comparative (Français)
Ce cours couvrira un aperçu théorique des progrès récents en épigénétique comparative en mettant l'accent sur les poisson téléostéens. Un accent particulier sera mis sur les approches méthodologiques axées sur l'utilisation des outils bioinformatiques ainsi que les approches épigénétiques moléculaires pour étudier la méthylation de l'ADN spécifique du promoteur et l'expression des ARN non-codants spécifiques par des approches de PCR en temps réel.
