SYSTEMATIC HUMAN ANATOMY The laboratory method is largely used in giving the courses in systematic human anatomy, with occasional lectures and formal quizzes. An oral examination is required at the completion of the dissection of each part. Students are urged to work independently as far as possible. Special emphasis is laid upon the importance of the visual images rather than word pictures of the various structures of the body. The student dissects from the standpoint of the segment, and to a great extent looks upon the various structures as they are found in the body from the point of view of their comparative relationship and development. Topographical relations are shown by models and frozen or formalin-hardened sections. In order to emphasize the importance of original work, a series of statistical investigations is being constantly carried on by the students through the agency of tabulation charts on which they record the important variations found in their dissections. Special attention is paid to the variations of one particular part of the body. 105. Head and Neck. First year, Assistant Professors MOODY and HARVEY, first semester.

Living models, special dissections and sections of the body are used in this course to enable the student to become more familiar with structural relations and to assemble information obtained in preceding dissections. Second year, first semester. Sec. I, M 2-5, F 2-3; Sec. 2, Tu 2-5, 109. Special Anatomy for Physicians and Advanced Students. Assistant Professors MOODY and HARVEY. Hours to be arranged to suit applicants. 210. Research. GRADUATE COURSES Assistant Professors MOODY and HARVEY and Dr. SMITH. Students and others who are sufficiently prepared will be allowed to undertake research upon original problems under the direction of members of the staff. The course also gives opportunity for those wishing to gain experience in special Histological Technique and in the construction of papers for publication. If the results obtained merit it, they will be published. To cover the cost of material expensive to obtain, chemicals, etc., a laboratory fee of $5 will be charged. Hours optional. 211. Journal Club. Reviews of current anatomical literature will be presented by the students and discussed informally. This course will be open to all students but the membership will be limited in number. Those wishing to join should consult Professor Moody. One hour a week, second semester. PHYSIOLOGY SAMUEL STEEN MAXWELL, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Physiology. ARTHUR RUSSELL MOORE, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Physiology. C. B. BENNETT, Ph.D., Instructor in Physiological Chemistry. OTIS O. A. SHARP, Assistant in Physiology. L. R. BEAUCHAMP, Technical Assistant. The required courses are 103, 104 and 106. The remaining courses are open to those students who have the time and the preparation necessary to pursue them with profit. Attention should be called to the fact that the equipment of the department offers unusual opportunities for research both in the Rudolph Spreckels Laboratory at Berkeley and in the Herzstein Research Laboratory at New Monterey. The equipment in the Rudolph Spreckels Physiological Laboratory comprises in addition to the apparatus and conveniences for the customary lines of work in mammalian physiology ample facilities for research in physiological chemistry and experimental biology. The depart ment library contains complete sets of all the important physiological journals, and the more important monographs on physiological and related subjects. The Herzstein Research Laboratory at New Monterey offers facilities for the investigation of problems in marine biology. *Absent on leave, 1913-14. 103. Biochemistry. Dr. BENNETT. In this course the foodstuffs are followed up from the moment that they are ingested to the moment when, after having circulated through the tissues and shared in their life, their final products are excreted from the body. The course may be considered as consisting of six parts, corresponding with various phases of the cycle of changes which the foodstuffs undergo. These divisions of the course are the following: 1. The foods; their properties, assimilation, and conversion into living matter or into reserve materials. The consideration of this phase of the subject takes the student to the point at which the foods have really become living matter or reserve-materials. This leads naturally to the second part of the subject, namely: 2. The manner in which the physical and chemical properties of the foods determine the properties of living protoplasm. 3. The correlation of the different activities of the tissues in so far as this is brought about by chemical agents which are distributed through the agency of the circulation. 4. The chemical phenomena which accompany or underlie the performance of function by living tissues. 5. The waste-products, their chemical nature, their derivation, and, to some extent, the method of excretion. 6. Regarding the entire body as a chemical machine, the efficiency of this machine is discussed and the relationship between the work it can perform and the nature of the fuel with which it is supplied. First year, second semester. Lectures, M Tu W Th 1-2, F, 9-10; laboratory. M Tu W Th, 2-5. 9 units. 104. Physiology. Associate Professor MAXWELL, Assistant Professor MOORE, and Dr. BENNETT. The physiology of nerve, muscle, central nervous system, sensation, circulation, respiration and secretion. The lectures cover in a systematic way the general subject-matter of the topics stated above. Laboratory experiments are so arranged that the most important fundamental observations are repeated. Attention is given to technique as well as to results. Continual use of the reference library is insisted upon. In addition to the routine work required alike of all students, each member of the class is required to demonstrate some special piece of experimental work; the demonstration is accompanied by a paper by another student on the subject which the demonstration illustrates, and each of the two hands in a carefully prepared bibliography. Thus each student is responsible for one demonstration, one paper, and two bibliographies. First year, second semester. Lectures, M Tu W Th S, 11-12; laboratory, M Tu W Th S, 9-12. (This course will be repeated for second-year class in 1913 in first semester owing to change in curriculum; see schedule.) 106. Pharmacology. Dr. BURNETT. The physiological action of the drugs, with illustrations derived from their therapeutic application, and practical demonstrations. Second year, first semester. M W F, 1-2; laboratory, W, 2-5. 4 units. ELECTIVES 110. Experimental Biology. Assistant Professor MOORE. Special problems in regeneration and the tropisms. Open to properly qualified students. Hours and credits by arrangement. 111A. Advanced Physiology. Associate Professor MAXWELL.

KARL F. MEYER, A.B., D.V.M., Associate Professor of Bacteriology and Protozoology. GLANVILLE Y. RUSK, A.B., M.D., Assistant Professor of Pathology. JEAN V. COOKE, A.B., M.D., Assistant Professor of Pathology and Director of the Laboratory of Animal Experimentation. GRACE F. GRIFFITHS, B.S., Assistant in Bacteriology. C. R. CHRISTIANSEN, M.D., Assistant in Bacteriology and Pathology. EDITH J. CLAYPOLE, Ph.B., M.S., M.D., Voluntary Research Assistant in · Pathology. The fees of medical courses, when taken by those not registered in the College of Medicine, will be $10 for each course, with an additional deposit of $5, which will be returned, less deduction for breakage, at the end of the half-year. The fees for research courses will be arranged in accordance with the scope of the work and the material required. Instruction in pathology and bacteriology is given in the Hearst Laboratory of Pathology and Bacteriology in Berkeley during the second year and at the University of California Hospital and the San Francisco Hospital during the third and fourth years. The course in pathology aims to outline the natural history of disease. The instruction is for convenience divided into three correlated courses dealing respectively with causation, progress and effect. 101. Bacteriology and Protozoology. Associate Professor MEYER and Miss GRIFFITHS. Bacteriological methods are first taught; the preparation of culture media, the isolation of bacteria in pure culture, and the morphology and cultural characteristics of bacterial species. The pathogenic bacteria are then taken up in relation to specific diseases. The lower animal parasites concerned in systemic diseases are then considered. Lectures are employed for outlining general principles, the work being largely practical. 12 hrs., afternoons, alternating with course 102, second half-year. 4 units. 102. Infection and Immunity. Professor GAY and Miss GRIFFITHS. The course presents the most accessible aspects of functional pathology. It traces the evolution of infectious diseases in the body and the mechanism of animal defense. Experimental methods of studying infection are demonstrated and so far as practicable carried out by the student. A systematic course of lectures will outline the principles of immunology with a consideration of their applicability in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. These lectures, but not the laboratory work, may be taken by nonmedical students who have had at least course 1 or 2. Laboratory 4 hrs., afternoons, alternating with course 101. 3 units. Lectures, M W and occasionally F, at 11. 103. Morbid Anatomy and Histopathology. Assistant Professor RUSK and Dr. CHRISTIANSEN. The organ and tissue changes in diseases in the animal and particularly in the human body will be studied in this course. Macroscopic lesions will be illustrated by fresh material from autopsies and museum specimens, and the microscopic appearances will be studied by means of a loan collection of prepared slides. Experimental lesions are used to emphasize the evolution of such processes. The course includes systematic instruction in the conduct of autopsies at the Alameda County Hospital at which the students assist in small groups. This course, while largely practical, is considered systematically in lectures and conferences. |
