Cell Biology - Honors

Catalog description

The overall goal of MCDB 103H is to extend the concepts covered in MCDB 103 and apply them to the context of research. For each selected topic, students read a short review article in the first week which provides the historical background and current consensus, followed by a landmark research article in the following week. The course is in the format of journal club with an emphasis on open discussion. Each week, a group of students give an oral presentation and lead class discussion.
