CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
65502	Lecture	BIB	9:30AM -10:50AM	TR	328 Bevier Hall	Pepino de Gruev, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Biopsych of Ingestive Behavior Section Info: Biopsychology of Ingestive Behavior: Why do we eat what we eat? This course provides a taste of the science including both biological and psychological basis of ingestive behavior and the adoption of both healthy and maladaptive behaviors concerning eating and drinking. We will review and integrate historical theories with recent research on how we perceive flavor, the development of food preferences, and the biological basis of hunger, thirst, and satiety. Students will also have the opportunity to strengthen their critical thinking skills by participating on two debates in which equal number of arguments will be formulated to support or refute important issues in the field of food science and human nutrition. Restriction(s): Restricted to students with Senior or Graduate class standing. Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign or Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.

Bohn, D	Part of Term: A Date Range: 01/21/20-03/13/20 Credit: 1 hours Section Title: Online Program Final Seminar Section Info: This seminar course will provide instruction, peer review, and practice for those online master’s students planning to complete their final poster presentation examination during the current semester. The course will also provide final instruction on exiting the program successfully. Please note, you must have completed at least 31 hours of coursework, with at least 11 hours at the 500 level. Restriction(s): Restricted to MS: FSHN (Online) -UIUC.
33048	Online	GEN	ARRANGED	n.a.	n.a.	Kadayifci, F Pan, Y	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Genetics Epigenetics Nutrition Section Info: The importance of genetics and epigenetics in nutrition is a significant way to understand the establishment of a more personalized approach to diet and health. Understanding both the role of diet in the varying expression of a genome and the role of epigenetics in the varying responses to diet is fundamental to understand human health. It is known that individuals are responding differently to the same dietary intake which establishes a challenge for both scientists and health professionals. Moreover, this particular field is becoming a significant target in order to provide a better understanding of health-diet-disease interactions. Therefore, this course will offer the information of 'how food affects our body functions and how diet differs for each individual?' which will support the development of better food products, optimize nutritional counseling and improve individualize diets in the future. This course will help students to learn basic genetics and epigenetics. More importantly, it will ensure better nutritional knowledge for students and help them to be aware of their nutritional advice for the public generally.
33049	Laboratory Lecture	NP2 NP2	10:30AM -11:20AM 11:00AM -12:20PM	F TR	328 Bevier Hall 328 Bevier Hall	Amengual Terrasa, J Amengual Terrasa, J	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/21/20-05/06/20 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Nutritional Physiology II Section Info: Anatomy and physiology of the respiratory, nervous, endocrine, immune, reproductive, and excretory systems. Special focus on the absorption, distribution, storage and mobilization of macronutrients and micronutrients. Learn the necessary concepts on cell biology and biochemistry required to understand human physiology. Manifestation of disease as a result of nutritional imbalances in body systems. Evaluation of the effectiveness and potential toxicity of nutritional supplements commonly used in the US. Pharmacological interventions and current therapeutics against diseases related to nutritional disorders. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
47163	Lecture	PT	11:00AM -12:40PM	T	22 ACES Lib, Info & Alum Ctr	Takhar, P	Part of Term: B Date Range: 03/16/20-05/06/20 Credit: 1 hours Section Title: Transport in Food Biopolymers Section Info: This section of FSHN 595 requires registered students to have successfully completed a physics or a calculus course at the undergraduate level.***The course will cover heat and fluid transport concepts for solving problems of importance to food and biological systems. Students will develop basic understanding of engineering models for working with these problems and obtain the solution using the finite element method with help of a software package. The overall focus will be to develop an understanding of an advanced computational tool that could be combined with the experimental data for optimizing the transport processes and understanding the underlying physical mechanisms. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
