GENETICS AND DEVELOPMENT

Catalog description

Explores animal development, including humans, and examines molecular, cellular, and genetic processes shaping it. Investigates embryonic development from fertilization to birth, encompassing organ formation and birth defect origins. Examines post-embryonic development, including regeneration, metamorphosis, gametogenesis, aging, cancer, and stem cells. Analyzes the relationship between environment, evolution, and development. Utilizes molecular genetic techniques and student projects to develop experimental investigations skills.
