| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 1377 In this course we will use wild Mimulus flower species to explore how plants adapt to pollinators through evolution. Approaches include genetic mapping, plant transformation, gene expression analysis, population genetics simulation, pollinator behavior assays, mathematical modeling and 3D printing. Students will have opportunities to learn many generalizable skills, like experiment design, data analysis, and basic molecular lab skills. Exploration of the primary literature and various opportunities to hone scientific communication skills will supplement lab work.; Pre-requisite(s): Instructor consent; Lottery Preference: None (this is a senior capstone course for Biology Majors); Enrollment Limit: 7 Natural Science, C: Physical and Natural Processes (; Hav: NA, C) |
