13 courses with the subject BIN, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
complex biological data. It is an interdisciplinary field that develops and applies methods and software tools for understanding biological data. (N)
and practices of effective grant writing. Through a blend of lectures, workshops, and peer-review sessions, students will learn how to develop compelling research proposals, effectively communicate their research ideas, and navigate the grant submission and review process.
and mechanisms underlying heritability and genetic variation. Students will explore Mendelian genetics, DNA structure and replication, gene expression, and the role of genetics in evolution, medicine, and society.
ecology, focusing on the application of molecular techniques to address ecological questions. Students will explore the genetic processes that underlie ecological phenomena and will learn how molecular tools can inform our understanding of speciation, adaptation, behavior, and conservation.
quantitative and population genetics, with emphasis on analysis. the methods that modern researchers use
past 10 years. Students will learn the methods by which experts in the field analyze whole exomes, Propionic Acidemia, and secondary variants that may affect heart failure & arrhythmia and poor neurological outcomes. We will evaluate how genetic tests have been used to define the common and rare disorders. Students will learn how to calculate Minor Allele Frequencies, Carrier and Disease rates. We will also cover technologies including Newborn Screening, Targeted Gene Mutation Tests, InVitae, and Gene-Dx Gene Panels, Plain-Insight-Profiles, and Whole Exomes sequencing technologies that are used to screen for diseases in this population.
of traditional lectures and novel research-based laboratories students will learn about both the theoretical and practical applications of genomics within biology and across other scientific fields.
essential computational tools to analyze large biological datasets and extract meaningful results using a novel biological dataset. Students will also learn to write a scientific manuscript that will be prepared for publication by the end of the course.
techniques, and applications of biotechnology. Students will explore the fundamental concepts of molecular biology and the real-world impact and ethical considerations of biotechnology in various fields, including healthcare, agriculture, and the environment. Students will interface with professionals in the field and work toward professional development for the biotech industry.
molecular wet lab, statistical and/or informatics tools. Bioinformatics skills will be related to assembly, annotation, variant characterization, and/or comparison of eukaryotic genomes and populations. Statistical analyses will be performed in R. Molecular tools may include DNA and RNA isolation, electrophoresis, restriction digests, DNA isolation from gels, PCR, sequencing, next generation sequencing and equipment maintenance. Core bioinformatics learning objectives will receive special attention. General skills include training students in the process and procedures of conducting meaningful and responsible research in Biology, including: deriving research objectives, experimental design, problem solving skills, responsible conduct.
the opportunity to engage in an independent, hands-on research experience for an entire semester. The research experience can be with private industry, academia, or the government and must be approved first by Dr. Lamendella. The experience must be immersive in bioinformatics and/or biotechnology, must have a data analysis component and the research project will be disseminated via both a written manuscript and oral presentation.
o Certificate Credit Total = 10-11 Any course exception must be approved by Dr. Regina Lamendella. Graduate Certificate in Community Health & Health Communication
