Course TEXT:
GENETICS: Analysis and Principle By Robert J. Brooker, 4th edition McGraw Hill
Course Objective: I hope by the end of the semester, I have accomplished teaching you the fundamental principles of genetics. Molecular genetics will be taught starting from classical discoveries and how those led to a burst of new technology and scientific tools used in the labs around the world today. No genetics class will be complete without learning Mendelian principles of inheritance so we will save the best for last and learn Mendelian genetics by the end of the semester.
