The Interdisciplinary Laboratory

 Laboratory Schedule

The laboratory will meet once a week on Wednesdays from 1:15 to 5:15 p.m.  The location will depend on the experiment.  The experiments for the Fall laboratory, their scheduled times, and locations are shown in the table below.

Experiment 1. Thermal properties of an ectothermic animal: Are lizards just cylinders with legs?
Experiment 2: Molecular weight of macromolecules: Is molecular weight always simple?
Experiment 3: Mechanical resonance of a high-rise building: Are seismic nightmares avoidable?
Experiment 4: Carbonate content of biological hard tissue: Of what are shells composed?
