Comments
Useful course, lots of reminders about benchtop
assays, current advances in research, etc. Current
literature. Useful in learning what researchers are
doing in the dept and who you might want to work
with. Helpful for gen path and for getting a handle on
how to read and interpret a paper/published research
data.

Spring
Fall of odd years. Good systematic review of diseases
affecting each part of eye, with ophtho residents.
Spring of even years
Great survey of lab animal diseases, gross and histo.
