Can we become superheroes by improving our bodily functions? In order to develop tools for the improvement of the human body, we need to understand its basic biology. In this course, we will look at the way the human body works by applying scientific literature to create your own imaginary superhero. We will discuss different topics about the human body, while also using the knowledge and inspiration we got from animals. With your imagination and science combined, you will create the next superhero.
Open to Natural Sciences Freshman with a declared major or on the Natural Sciences Exploratory Track.
