Resumo

This course is designed to provide a comprehensive and integrative understanding of the essential principals in comparative animal physiology of respiration. Students will be introduced to the fundamental aspects of respiratory function in several animals models, including vertebrates and invertebrates, under the light of regulatory mechanisms and evolution of different breathing modes. Most lectures will be based on current research by the professors, and the practical activities have been designed to provide inspiration for novel studies in the field of comparative respiratory physiology. At the end of each day, 2 hours for PBL (problem based learning) will be proposed for the students to apply the knowledge of practical and theoretical class. After the first week of the course, the students will have three days to develop projects based on the knowledge they have acquired in class. Main Topics: Metabolic biochemistry, Genomics/proteomics/metabolomics, Metabolic rate, Respiratory rhythm, Pulmonary mechanics and mechanoreceptor, Fick equation & oxygen transport cascade, HBO2 curve and blood gas transport, Acid-base regulation, Chemoreception and reflex responses, Central cardiorespiratory networks and Cardiorespiratory interactions.
