Awesome

I loved Profesor Ganser. Memorization will not cut it for this class. You have to apply the information to different scenarios on exams. The grades consists of three exams, a cumulative final and quizzes. I recorded her lectures and I did not use the book. I got an A in this class.

Biography

Kennesaw State University - Biology

Assistant professor at Kennesaw State University

Lisa
Ganser
Greater Atlanta Area
I am currently an assistant professor in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology at Kennesaw State University, one of the largest public universities in the state of Georgia. KSU has recently been designated as an R2 University by the Carnegie Classifications of Institutions of Higher Education. My areas of interest include Comparative Physiology, Neurology, Endocrinology, and Comparative Anatomy, and I have been clinically and academically trained in these areas to utilize techniques to understand physiological change. I am also an experienced and awarded teacher and mentor with years of practice in teaching problem-based courses in Human Physiology, Physiological Ecology, Neuroscience, and Comparative Anatomy. My lab's research interests focus on both therapeutic and deleterious effects of exposure to pharmaceuticals across the ontogeny of the zebrafish model. I have a vested interest in pathophysiological research, and these studies drive my teaching and research. Because of my physiological expertise, unique training and experience, and research approaches, I am comfortable working in academic, clinical, and industrial research settings as well as instruction and training in technical equipment or pharmaceutical therapies, diagnostic techniques, and medical pathophysiology. I have bootstrapped my professional experiences with courses and workshops where I can learn about my own implicit biases in the classroom and lab, and how best I can work to ensure equity to my students, employees, and colleagues. The bases of my instructional and career efforts lie in the practice of welcoming an inclusive and diverse group of colleagues and employees who understand how the experiences, backgrounds, and opinions of many lead to innovation and success.
