Selected Topics In Biology I

Catalog description

Special topics in the biological sciences of current interest to faculty and students will be presented through lecture, discussion, laboratory experiments, research and reports. This course is intended to supplement the science and biology content knowledge and understanding of each student, and to provide students with experiences and understandings concerning the place of the biological sciences in the modern world that can be used after graduation to make biology more interesting and more relevant to our students’ own future students. The particular topics selected will depend on the instructor’s field of expertise, and could in some cases involve working on a biology project with New York Medical College researchers. The topics presented in this course might include, for example, physiology and biochemistry.
