CMM530 - Advanced Genetic Mechanisms
Course ID
040276
Course Description
The function of genes lies at the heart of heritability and variation in biology. Understanding genetic mechanisms and genetic interactions is essential to understanding foundational concepts like developmental biology, cell physiology, evolution, and disease. But much of what is known about genetic mechanism is well advanced over the basics enumerated by Mendel and other early luminaries. This course covers advanced concepts in gene function, genetic interactions, and genetic analyses and manipulations that are commonly in use in research laboratories, or that go awry in human disease.
