BTECH 501 - Advanced Molecular Biology

Advanced Molecular Biology is a technique-centered course that focuses on modern approaches used to assay small and large-scale gene expression, manipulate gene expression, investigate chromatin-interacting proteins and edit genomic sequences. Each lecture explores the development and implementation of these approaches, primarily through literature review and case studies. The lab is designed to be a course-based research experience that allows the student to learn and apply several cutting-edge molecular techniques in an authentic research project.
