Teaching
Fall semesters BIOL 213-502 Molecular Cell Biology
Objectives: The purpose of this course is to provide a rigorous foundation in current molecular and cellular biology so that upper level life science courses will be more meaningful.
Spring semesters BIOL 613 Cell Biology
Objectives: This course is intended to give the student an advanced understanding of the molecular interactions and mechanisms underlying cell structure, function, and dynamics. In addition, students will learn the scientific methods used to investigate these processes. Both objectives will be achieved by lectures, readings, and critical analysis of seminal papers from the primary literature.
