IPHY-5550 (3) Exercise Biochemistry

Examines the underlying biochemical mechanisms that are responsible for the physiological adaptations to short- and long-term dynamic exercise including carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. The interaction of key biochemical alterations as it relates to disease (diabetes, obesity, and aging) and exercise will be addressed. Recommended prereqs., one year of general chemistry (lecture + lab); IPHY 4650. Requisites: Restricted to Integrative Physiology (IPHY) or Integrative Physiology Concurrent Degree (C-IPHY) graduate students only.
