This interdisciplinary course focuses on infectious pathogens of humans, including their genetics, physiology, host pathogenicity, evolution and epidemiology. Major pathogens of concern for clinicians and healthcare workers are surveyed. Impacts of infectious diseases on society will also be explored. This introductory course is designed to serve students from biology and non-biology majors interested in entering the health professions, including nursing, physician assistant, medical or veterinary school, dental-related professions, etc. Lab consists of acquiring foundational skills necessary to understand how we study human pathogens from the molecular through ecosystem level.  Three laboratory hours per week. Students may not receive credit for both BIOL 256 and BIOL 356. Prerequisites: C- or better in CHEM 100 or CHEM 108 or CHEM 111 or CHEM 112 or CHEM 115, AND C- or better in BIOL 101 or BIOL 105 or BIOL 207; declared major in nursing or nutrition or permission of instructor

  Kenichi Okamoto

Bioinformatics is an emerging field in the sciences that arises from interactions between biology, biochemistry, and computational science. The goal of bioinformatics is to find ways to sort, compare, and decode nucleotide and protein sequences to identify underlying similarities and patterns that are biologically relevant. This knowledge of bioinformatics along with the advent of genome sequencing has changed how scientists investigate problems. Instead of looking at how one gene or protein is affected by a particular problem, we now look at how the entire genome (genomics) or the entire organism (proteomics) responds. This course will introduce you to the tools that are available for these types of analyses and how the information gained from these tools is used to generate hypotheses in all areas of biological science. Four laboratory hours per week. Prerequisites: Any two 300-level biology course (one of which can be CHEM 440).
