Biology
Undergraduate Seminar
M 9:10-11AM
This is an advanced seminar course focusing on primary literature studying viruses and their impact on public health. Selected topics will emphasize evolution, transmission, surveillance, and treatment. The intellectual framework will progress from the cellular and molecular levels to the organismal and ecological. Host-pathogen interactions between viruses and humans will be a particular focus. The course is organized around presentation and critique of both current research as well as landmark discoveries in the field. Discussions will also integrate the interplay of laboratory science with ethics and policy.
Prerequisite: BIOL BC2100 or equivalent
