Want to learn how to probe multiple physiological systems that are impacted by metabolic disease, consider
sending yourself and/or your trainees to this two week course. The objective of this course is to give
students the tools needed to assess whether an experimental intervention alters macronutrient metabolism,
energy balance, cardiovascular homeostasis or animal behavior. This course held at Vanderbilt University
School of Medicine uses a combination of lectures, hands on laboratories, demonstrations and data problem
sessions to give you the tools necessary to probe physiological systems. More information can be obtained
at
http://www.mc.vanderbilt.edu/diabetes/msshortcourse. Registration deadline: April 13, 2012.
