Description
In this course we examine prehistoric technology through the lens of case studies from Chinese archaeology. We begin with a focus on general concepts in the archaeology of technology. After providing this thematic foundation, we explore specific examples of technologies that have become a focus of archaeological attention in China: lithics, ceramics, plant and animal domesticates, architecture, hydrological engineering, textiles, metallurgy, divination technology, and writing. Through this focus on technology, the course provides an overview of Chinese prehistory and the basis for our current understanding of the origins and early developments in Chinese civilization. Other important themes referenced in the course include the emergence and migration of modern hominins, the origins of agriculture, and animal domestication; sedentary villages, early urbanism, and changes in burial practices and religion; ritual, writing, and production; and the development of complex society and the presentation of archaeological information in modern contexts.

Description
What are the effects of displacement on tradition, storytelling, and cultural belonging? How does forced migration influence narration, creative expression, and imagination? What are the powers and potentials of artistic communication after existential rupture? What is the role of the storyteller in flight? This course explores expressive cultures in motion, amid crisis, and out of place, and asks how tradition bearers and creative innovators adapt when the communities in which their preexisting cultural practices had once flourished are destroyed, uprooted, transformed, or dispersed. It also asks how researchers, aid workers, activists, and other outsiders might engage in ethical and beneficial ways with individuals and communities in exile. In examining the impacts of forced migration on cultural production, transmission, and innovation, we put classical theories of refugee and migration studies in conversation with recent ethnographies and folklore collections, as well as memoirs, novels, songs, and films by and about displaced persons. With case studies ranging from colonial Africa, to post-war Europe, to contemporary America, we explore what, if anything, holds together the refugee experience, while also interrogating our own neighborly obligations and scholarly commitments as we navigate what has famously been deemed the century of the migrant.
Description
This course combines an introduction to the formal, theoretical, and normative structures of human rights with analyses of contemporary case studies. It illustrates several critical human rights issues, debates, and practices that demonstrate the increasing significance of ethnographic field methods and related interpretive analysis. Accepting that agreement on and realization of human rights often require negotiation and compromise, the course illustrates why, and suggests how, realization of many broadly-defined human rights require specific contextualization.
Description
Mathematical models are ubiquitous, providing a quantitative framework for understanding, prediction, and decision making in nearly every aspect of life, ranging from the timing of traffic lights, to the control of the spread of disease, to resource management, to sports. They also play a fundamental role in all natural sciences and increasingly in the social sciences as well. This course provides an introduction to modeling through in-depth discussions of a series of examples, and hands-on exercises and projects that make use of a range of continuous and discrete mathematical tools.
Prerequisites: MATH E-21a and MATH E-21b or permission of instructor. Knowledge of some programming language is helpful, but not necessary, as we introduce Matlab to those with no previous experience. Students must have Matlab installed on their computers. Students proficient in Python are welcome to use that language instead of Matlab.
Notes: The recorded lectures are from the Harvard Faculty of Arts and Sciences companion course Applied Mathematics 115. Registered students can ordinarily live stream the lectures Tuesdays and Thursdays, 12:00-1:15 pm starting January 25 or they can watch them on demand. Videos are available within 24 hours of the lecture. Students in this course and the companion Harvard course may interact with one another, for example, in Canvas or via Zoom live or recorded class sessions.
Description
This course develops skills for computational research with a focus on stochastic approaches, emphasizing implementation and examples. Stochastic methods make it feasible to tackle very diverse problems when the solution space is too large to explore systematically, or when microscopic rules are known, but not the macroscopic behavior of a complex system. Methods are illustrated with examples from a wide variety of fields, like biology, finance, and physics.
Prerequisites: Calculus-based statistics, proficiency in Python programming.
Notes: The recorded lectures are from the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences course Applied Mathematics 207.

Description
This course is designed for students who have not previously studied Arabic and introduces the script, sounds, and basic grammar of the language. Emphasis is placed on developing proficiency in all four skills (reading, speaking, listening, and writing), as well as an understanding and appreciation of Arabic culture.
Description
This course is the continuation of ARAB E-1 and is designed to reinforce and build upon what has been covered during the first semester. This is a proficiency-based course; emphasis is placed on the development of reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills for the purpose of communicative goals. These technical aspects are acquired through the context of Arab cultures. By the end of this course, students are able to communicate about everyday situations, both verbally and in writing; understand the use of basic grammatical structures; acquire an understanding of fundamental cultural values, practices, and perspectives of native speakers of Arabic; develop productive listening skills; and enjoy using the language creatively.
Prerequisites: ARAB E-1 or the equivalent.
Description
This course provides an overview of the main aspects of biochemistry by relating molecular interactions to their effects on the organism as a whole, especially as related to human biology. The organization of macromolecules is addressed through a discussion of their hierarchical structure, and a study of their assembly into complexes responsible for specific biological processes. Topics addressing protein function include enzyme kinetics, the characterization of major metabolic pathways, and their interconnection into tightly regulated networks.
Prerequisites: Introductory biology and chemistry.
Description
This course helps students understand the psychological and physiological effects of substance abuse and how drug actions can be understood in terms of effects on the brain. The course focuses on neuroanatomical structures such as the nucleus accumbens, ventral tegmental area, and other structures implicated in drug addiction. Emphasis is placed on the role of multimodal neuroimaging in drug abuse. It also combines neurotransmitter-based approaches to the field with perspectives that emphasize specific drugs and distinct drug categories. Specifically, this course includes an overview of the history of psychopharmacology; the neuron, synaptic transmission, and neurotransmitters; pharmacokinetics, or how the body handles drugs; pharmacodynamics, or how drugs act; epidemiology and neurobiology of addiction; stimulants; hallucinogens; cannabinoids; opioids; antipsychotic drugs; and antidepressant drugs. In addition to focusing on drug dependence and addiction, this course places considerable emphasis on drug treatments for various psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, parkinsonism, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Prerequisites: Prior coursework in neuroscience, neurobiology, and psychology is helpful.
