    Course Format

    The class will consist of lecture videos, which are between 8 and 12 minutes in length. The course will be divided into segments where each segment will have a quiz and a homework assignment. For evaluation, students will be graded through their participation in the assignments and quiz completion.

    Suggested Reading

    Review articles and selected original research articles will be discussed in the lectures and can enhance understanding, but these are not required to complete the course. All materials will be from open access journals or will be provided as links to e-reprints, so there will be no cost to the student.
