TOXI 608 RESEARCH IN TOXICOLOGY

Designed for students without previous research experience, this course provides training in how to design and conduct research studies, beginning with a two-week classroom based introduction to hypothesis-driven research and experimental approaches used in mechanistic studies in toxicology. For the remainder of the semester, each student works individually with a faculty mentor to develop and complete a small lab-based or epidemiology research project. A written report is generated and results of the project presented at the end of the semester seminar.
