Open only to microbiology students. Students doing dissertation research register for this course, as well as students who are rotating through laboratories of staff members.
Using the format of a research seminar highlighting research “challenges” of the DNSc faculty , this course is designed to strengthen the student’s ability to integrate and synthesize knowledge in statistics and nursing research methodologies, and to apply this integrated knowledge to common problems in study design and data analysis.
Supervised directed readings and literature review in areas relevant to a students research program.
Required for all graduate students in pharmacology. Prerequisite: familiarity with basic biochemistry and molecular biology. Introduction to molecular approaches to target identification and drug development and delivery for cellular and subcellular processes that contribute to human disease. The principles of drug-receptor interactions; ion channels as molecular targets of neurohormones and drugs; structure and function of G-protein coupled receptors; cytoplasmic signaling molecules including receptor and non-receptor tyrosine kinases and serine-threonine kinases; neuro-psychopharmacology; the pharmacology of inflammation; and novel approaches to gene-targeted pharmacology. Integration of molecular processes and human disease including cancer, neuro degenerative disease; cardiovascular disease, and psychiatric disorders is stressed.
Thesis Completion Internship

Open only to students in the Integrated Program.
This course will explore the nature and significance of our capacity for practical reason, focusing on a variety of questions: What we should want from a philosophical account of practical reason (should it be descriptive or normative, for example)? Are reasons causes? What does practical reason require? What is the relation between rationality and morality? How can practical reasoning fail? We will pursue these and related questions through a variety of historical and contemporary texts.

Abstract entities (numbers, sets, functions) and norms (norms for judgment and moral norms) raise multiple puzzles. Is their existence in some way dependent upon us and our choices and actions? If so, how? If not, what is it for these abstract entities and norms to exist? And how can we know about them? Do we have to give the same kind of answer for abstract entities as for norms? Do these questions have to be answered differently for different kinds of abstract entities, or for different kinds of norms? These are the questions we will be addressing.
All matriculated graduate students are required to attend the seminar as long as they are in residence. No degree credit is granted. The seminar is the principal medium of communication among those with biomedical engineering interests within the University. Guest speakers from other institutions, Columbia faculty, and students within the Department who are advanced in their studies frequently offer sessions.
MA Film & Media Studies students register for this class to receive academic credit for their thesis work.
The residency focuses on the delivery of fully accountable scope, health care across the continuum of sites and patient needs. This residency requires students to apply the knowledge of: 1) diagnosis and management of ambulatory patients with complex diagnoses and comorbid conditions in the context of family, community and culture, 2) diagnosis and management of patients requiring interventions available only in an acute care setting and 3) diagnosis and management of patients who are unable to function independently due to age alterations and/or deficits in mental or physical status, developmental, perceptual and physical disability and chronic, degenerative illness. Sites include hospital based clinics, ambulatory centers, private offices, emergency rooms, walk-in clinics and acute/critical care units, labor and delivery suites in the hospital facilities and settings which provide hospice care, supportive care, home care, nursing home care, rehabilitative care, technologically dependent care and assisted living services. The DNP student will demonstrate an integration of comprehensive assessment, advanced differential diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and evaluation of care for patients and synthesis of evidence-based practice with patients with a variety of conditions. In this context, the DNP student will organize and develop a professional portfolio.

The course is intended for Doctor of Nursing Practice students who have completed all requirements, but are engaged in relevant residency activities that are not associated with the required course sequence. Such activities include scholarly project, i.e. publication.
The DNP Transition to Practice course provides the student an opportunity to prepare for the final semester DNP intensive clinical experience. The student will establish a clinical practice site in which they can demonstrate fully accountable patient care delivery and attainment of the CUSON DNP Competencies for Comprehensive Patient Care.
