Refresher Course on Gender Differences in Physiology
from APS Education online

The APS Education Committee and Teaching Section sponsor courses on physiology topics during the APS annual meeting, Experimental Biology. Courses are designed to provide both an intensive overview of content in one of the areas of physiology and opportunities to review new teaching methods and materials for physiology instruction. They are targeted especially for non-specialists who have teaching responsibilities in the refresher course's content area.
