BIOL 618 - Human Molecular Biology

[4]
The approaches of molecular biology and modern cell biology as applied to the study of both normal and diseased human states. Where appropriate, the analysis of other mammalian experimental systems may be included. The course will involve the critical reading and discussion of the relevant research literature and the preparation of one or more papers on specific issues or topics. The precise topics covered in any one semester will depend on the interest of the faculty and students and with current developments in the field. Possible topics include: the molecular and cellular basis for human disease, human molecular genetics, the human genome and proteomic project, human genetic therapy and human evolution.
Prerequisite: Prerequisites: Undergraduate courses in genetics (e.g. BIOL 302) and cell biology (e.g. BIOL 303) and consent of instructor.
Note: May be repeated for credit with a different topic.
