	...	Alumna Uses COSAM Foundation to Prepare for Career as a Pharmacist “During my fall semester, I had to take immunology and pathophysiology. Even though immunology was a little different and harder at UGA, I was able to grasp the main concepts and do really well on exams because I had taken immunology at Auburn. The same goes for pathophysiology. I really hated biomedical physiology when I was going through it because it was a lot of material and it was hard, but all of what I learned from that class I was able to apply to my pathophysiology class and do really well on exams,” Causby said.
	...	COSAM Professor Publishes Research on Fish Response to Marine Heatwave “The idea was to analyze the expression of as many genes as possible to characterize the stressful response of fishes to the elevate temperature and see if all species were responding in the same way” Bernal said. “In the end we found that the molecular response to warming varies depending on the species and the stage of the heatwave, as we observed differences between three weeks of sampling.”
