BIOL 642 - Introduction to Developmental Biology

[4]

A lecture and discussion course that considers the two major aspects of animal development: 1) the means by which, starting with a fertilized egg, progeny cells progressively differentiate from their precursors and one another to produce the ultimate diversity of the multicellular organism and 2) the processes by which this increasingly complex population of cells is synthesized into a single integrated organism.
