EBME 401. Bioelectric Phenomena
Description
Models of excitable cells and membranes. Neural and
Cardiac action potentials. Propagation of excitation.
Bioelectric sources, volume conductor fields. Electric
Field interaction with excitable tissue.
Course Goals
The goal of this course is to provide working knowledge
of theoretical methods that are used in the fields
of Electrophysiology and Bioelectricity. These methods
will be applied to describe, from a theoretical and
quantitative perspective, the electrical behavior
of nerve and muscle and the associated and applied
electrical and magnetic fields.
Prerequisites
Differential equations, physiology, circuits.
Class/laboratory Schedule
Two 75 minute sessions per week.
Semesters and Years Offered
Offered spring every year.
Computer Usage
Mathematica will be used.
