One Hundred Years of Pandemics: Deconstructing HIV, Influenza, and Coronavirus. This class will explore the major pandemics of the last century. In this seminar course, students will explore principles and themes common to modern pandemics. We will emphasize basic principles of virus pathogenesis, biological responses, emergence, evolution, and transmission of the viral diseases that resulted in pandemics. Student will examine responses to pandemics through a biological lens, critically examining claims and the roles of science, technology and society. We will examine how social, political, cultural, and material conditions shape the scientific work and response to pandemics, and debate what science can - and cannot - do in the face of an emerging pandemic. Prerequisites: Completion of BIOL 207, 208, and 209
