An introduction to the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate embryonic development in animals. Topics include fertilization, establishment of the major tissue/organ types, and body axis patterning. The course covers examples of embryogenesis in both vertebrate and invertebrate species in order to highlight key developmental principles. Weekly hours: 3 Lecture hoursPrerequisite(s): BMSC 220.3 and BIOL 224.3 or BMSC 208.3. Note: Students with credit for ACB 330.3 or ACB 201.3 cannot take CPPS 330.3 for credit.
