General Physiology Course
This course builds expertise in general physiology using real fish models. It covers homeostasis, gill and kidney function, cardiovascular and neural control, plus designing simple experiments to apply core concepts in rigorous biological science practice. You'll gain hands-on skills in experimenting with temperature and oxygen stress on model species.
