Study in specific areas of biological science such as human genetics, microbes, and the insect world. Not offered for credit to biology majors.

1 hour laboratory lecture, 2 hours laboratory Emphasis is placed on methods of measuring physiological processes. Study of body structure is accomplished by dissection of animal specimens and by use of tissue materials.

Fundamentals of microbiology to prepare students interested in the health science field. Topics include basic microbiology, control of microorganisms, host resistance, and pathogenic microorganisms.

Exercises in microbiological principles and techniques, such as microscopy, staining, growth and quantitation of microbial cultures, and identification of microorganisms by biochemical and other tests. Intended to accompany and illustrate BIO 251 Medical Microbiology.

Students with senior standing (or others with consent of the instructor) report on and discuss current biological problems as presented in principle journals, abstracts and reviews. The work of each seminar is usually built upon a single unifying content area.

In-depth study of a specific area in biology, leading to independent research addressing a biological question. Research results will be presented in a professional-style poster at a research symposium. Attendance at biology department seminars is also required.
