The evolution of organismal diversity can be viewed as a series of important events through time. Defining moments include the evolution of photosynthesis, eukaryotic life, sexual recombination, variation in life-history, and multicellularity. Examples from the five kingdoms considered in a phylogenetic context. Historical relationships among organisms discussed using evidence from morphology, gene sequences, and biogeography. Laboratory includes inventory of organismal diversity and practical exercises to study historical relationships.

What are genes? How do they work? Why are some people resistant to HIV-infection while others are not? What does it mean to inherit a susceptibility gene for breast cancer? What is DNA Âfingerprinting and should there be a mandatory DNA database collected from the population at large? Genomics is a rapidly developing science that has far-reaching implications for health and disease and contemporary social issues. This course will introduce the basic principles of genomics while emphasizing advances and their social and ethical implications.

Global Warming and associated Global Climate Change have direct and indirect impacts on oceans, coasts, estuaries, ecosystems and human culture and society which will cause dramatic changes many decades into the future. Examples are inundation of low lying coastal plains, projected loss of barrier islands, the sinking of Venice and New Orleans and dramatic alteration of estuarine and marine environments. This course will explore these direct and indirect impacts through examination and discussions centered on popular and primary scientific literature.

How do modern discoveries in genetics, molecular biology, and genomics inform our understanding of evolution and the origin of species? What is the role of "selfish genes", DNA parasites, and whole genome duplications in shaping the incredible diversity of life around us? How has sex left its indelible imprint on our genomes? In this course we will explore these topics and more as we look at the interplay between Darwinian ideas of evolution and our modern understanding of genomics. The course will include readings that range from classic literature and the popular press to original scientific research articles.

The course explores the oceans via an integration of the biology, geology, physics and chemistry of the sea. In this course, students will learn how the oceans formed, why the ocean circulates in gyres and how life adapts to the environment of the sea. Additional topics include: plate tectonics, tracers in the sea, weather and climate in the ocean, waves and tides, marine food chains, coastal processes, and animal and plant diversity.

This course is designed for curious, intellectually-motivated students who have never seriously studied science, who have no particular interest in science, or who in fact Âhate science. Students will be challenged to look in depth at the science underlying issues that arise from everyday life (e.g., what does it mean to say a shampoo contains Âamino proteins and does this help your hair?), from political controversies (what are genetically modified foods and can they prevent malnutrition?), economic decisions (can alternative energy sources end our dependence on foreign oil?), ethical dilemmas (does the possibility that stem cell research will improve the quality of our lives justify the use of human embryonic tissues in research), breaking news stories (e.g., is the planet getting warmer? If so, why, and can we really do anything about it), and so forth. The examples we discuss will depend on what we read in newspapers, see on TV, hear from our friends and family, or just bump into in whatever way.

The course consists of a lecture and laboratory, each of which meets twice a week. Lectures include an overview of the history of microbiology, and cover both classical and modern bacteriological principles. Topics discussed include prokaryotic and eukaryotic structure, criteria used in classification, physiology (including reproduction, growth and metabolism), genetics (classical and molecular), infection and immunity, and environmental and industrial aspects involving microorganisms.
