BIO-210 Human Genetics

This course will introduce the student to current human genetic knowledge about the chemistry of the gene, human biochemical and molecular level inheritance, and somatic/germ cell genetics. This study will relate the course content with previous classical approaches and build toward an understanding of newer cytogenetic approaches. The discussions will emphasize the molecular characterization of genotype and its relationship to phenotypic expression in birth defects and human molecular disease. This course meets science general education requirements. No prerequisites.
