Introductory Independent Biological Research

Catalog description

Introductory Independent Biological Research is an opportunity for full-time undergraduates in the College, SEAS and GS interested in laboratory research to share in the work of an ongoing research program in our Department or in a comparable laboratory elsewhere in the university. Projects should address a specific biological problem. Clinical projects are not allowed. While most projects are laboratory-based, computational projects that address specific biological issues are allowed. This course differs from UN3500 in that it does not have prerequisites, does not require attendance at recitations, is graded P-D-F, and is graded solely by the sponsoring lab head.
