BIOSC 0353 - GENETICS LABORATORY


Minimum Credits: 2
Maximum Credits: 2
Long Description This authentic research-based laboratory course will use a model genetic system, such as Drosophila, to advance our understanding of gene function and regulation. Students will learn how to perform genetic analyses in the system being used, for example, setting up crosses, generating mutants, analyzing mutant phenotypes, using molecular genetic techniques, and making transgenics. Students will also learn how to devise hypotheses, design experiments, record experimental results, and then interpret these so that they can be communicated in the form of a poster, presentation, and/or written report.
