HCNSMAWADV2 credits The laboratory is designed to introduce students to a variety of cellular and molecular techniques and assays used to investigate the effect of neurotoxic metals and other injurious agents on the nervous system. Labs will include topics such as generation and examination of dose-response curves following neurotoxic insult, examination of oxidative stress, and assessment of cell viability in cultured cell lines. Occasionally, students will be required to work outside the scheduled lab period.
