Through this process, students will read and interpret scientific literature to increase their confidence in engaging with primary sources. Content goals for this course are to develop an understanding of core biological principles and how they relate to current issues. Topics include cell biology, evolution, energy transformations in living systems, fundamental genetics and genetic engineering, cell division and cancer growth, human population growth, and human impacts on ecosystems.
