Genome projects are leading to great advances in our understanding of biology and in our ability to manipulate the genetic information of organisms, including humans. We will focus on the science behind genome projects, and the ways in which the resulting knowledge and technology affect our lives. This course will also serve as a general introductory biology course for biology majors as well as non-majors. We will read articles and books, and make use of the World Wide Web.
This course is limited to first-year students.; Coreq: BIOL-145HGL.
Multiple required components--lab and/or discussion section. To register, submit requests for all components simultaneously.
