PHYSIOLOGY

SAMUEL S. MAXWELL, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Physiology.
THEODORE C. BURNETT, M.D., Assistant Professor of Physiology.
ROSALIND WULZEN, Ph.D., Instructor in Physiology.

LILLIAN M. MOORE, M.S., Instructor in Physiology.
GEORGE H. MARTIN, A.B., Assistant in Physiology.
JOHN A. LARSON, M.A., Assistant in Physiology.

Courses 1 and 2 are designed to meet the needs of students who wish to obtain an elementary knowledge of the subject matter and methods of physiology. While no prerequisite is insisted upon, students who have not had the equivalent of matriculation chemistry will find themselves at a disadvantage.

Students who intend to have a major in physiology should be prepared in physics and inorganic and organic chemistry. They should also have some knowledge of human or comparative anatomy. The following courses will be required: Physiology 1, 2, 108A-108B, 109A109B, and 110 or 111; Zoology lâ−1в may be substituted for Physiology 2.

For the teacher's recommendation with physiology as a major subject, the student should complete the following courses: Physiology 1, 2, 108A108B, 109A-109B, 116, and, in addition, Hygiene 2 and 101, if the major subject is to be physiology and hygiene.

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 facilities for research in general physiology and experimental biology. The department 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.
