In Person | Lecture
St Paul: Owens Science Hall LL54
Requirements Met:
Biology Lab Elective
This course explores how the principles of evolutionary biology can be used to enhance our understanding of human disease and social psychology. In the first half of the course we will explore such topics as the evolution of virulence in pathogens, the persistence of genetic diseases in human populations, the evolutionary basis of aging, and the disease consequences of mismatches between our current environment and the environment in which humans evolved. In the second half of the course we will study the relationships between human social psychology and social interactions and will consider such topics as mate choice, parent-offspring relations, selfishness and altruism, and the possible evolutionary basis of various mental illnesses. Four laboratory/recitation hours per week. Prerequisites: A minimum grade of C- in BIOL 209; any 300-level BIOL course.
