In many cases these rhythms are generated from within organisms and are called circadian rhythms. Biological basis of these daily rhythms or circadian oscillations. Exploration of molecular, cellular, and system-level organization of these timing systems. Temporal role of these variations in maintaining homeostatic mechanisms of body and impact on nervous system. Concurrently scheduled with course C226. Letter grading.

c127 neuroendocrine of reproduction. Interesting Course. I liked the material. Arnold gives some lectures. And faculty from the medical school gives other lectures. Grading wise, get wrecked. Not a class if you're looking for an easy A course. Just take c152 or the class taught by Edgerton if you have a tight quarter. This class fucked up my GPA right before I sent out medical school apps, and regreted taking it over Edgerton's course. One midterm and one final. Typical physci exam and is graded up the ass.

Professor Colwell is a respected researcher at UCLA. He has done some work with Chancellor Block, who will be one of the guest lecturers. The material is very interesting and Colwell makes it very exciting for students. About 45% get A's, which is a pretty fair amount. This class does require some time dedication, but it's definitely a lot easier than Physci core classes. There is one midterm and a final, mostly multiple choices and True/False
