The MIT Biology Department core courses all cover the same core material, which includes the fundamental principles of biochemistry, genetics, molecular biology, and cell biology. Biological function at the molecular level is particularly emphasized and covers the structure and regulation of genes, as well as, the structure and synthesis of proteins, how these molecules are integrated into cells, and how these cells are integrated into
Laboratory that accompanies UC Berkeley General Biology I lecture course, which covers cell structure and function, molecular and organismal genetics, animal development, form and function.

General introduction to cell structure and function, molecular and organismal genetics, animal development, form and function.

This is an introductory chemistry course, emphasizing basic principles of atomic and molecular electronic structure, thermodynamics, acid-base and redox equilibria, chemical kinetics, and catalysis. This course also introduces the chemistry of biological, inorganic, and organic molecules.
-
This is an introductory chemistry course for students with an unusually strong background in chemistry. Knowledge of calculus is recommended. Emphasis is on basic principles of atomic and molecular electronic structure, thermodynamics, acid-base and redox equilibria, chemical kinetics, and catalysis. The course also covers applications of basic principles to problems in metal coordination chemistry, organic chemistry, and biological chemistry.

Molecular biology of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and their viruses. Mechanisms of DNA replication, transcription, translation. Structure of genes and chromosomes. Regulation of gene expression. Biochemical processes and principles in membrane structure and function, intracellular trafficking and subcellular compartmentation, cytoskeletal architecture, nucleocytoplasmic transport, signal transduction mechanisms, and cell cycle control.

In this lecture on the male reproductive system, Professor Diamond begins by covering the primary sex organ (the gonad or testis). She discusses its function in producing sperm and testosterone, location within the male body, and the reason it is enclosed in a separate pouch called the scrotum (temperature regulation by the eremasteric muscle). Then she talks about the source of sperm, structure of the testis, in particular, the lobules,...more

Professor Kleiner investigates the major architectural commissions of the emperor Domitian, the last Flavian emperor. She begins with the Arch of Titus, erected after Titus' death by his brother Domitian on land previously occupied by Nero's Domus Transitoria. The Arch celebrated Titus' greatest accomplishment--the Flavian victory in the Jewish Wars--and may have served as Titus' tomb. Professor Kleiner also discusses the Stadium of...more

Census data is often politically influenced and hence inaccurate. The birthrate in developing countries is nearly twice that in developed countries. Most humans live in less developed countries, so the world birthrate is near the higher number. The world birthrate is two and a half times the death rate; we are not close to population stabilization. Almost everywhere, the death rate has been drastically reduced; further changes will not...more

The main focus of today's discussion is Rawls's third and most problematic principle, the difference principle, which states that income and wealth is to be distributed "to the greatest benefit of the least advantaged individual." This stems from the logic that what is good for the least advantaged individual will be good for the second-least advantaged, and the third, and so on. But what if slightly benefiting the least advantaged person...more

Professor Diamond continues her discussion of the nervous system beginning with processes - extensions of the soma. She describes axons, dendrites and the types of synapses: axodendritic, axoaxomic, axosomatic, and dendrodentritic. She then describes how neurotransmitters travel from the presynaptic terminal of an axon to the postsynaptic terminal of a dendrite in an axodendritic synapse. Professor Diamond continues with neuron...more
