1. Genetics, Faculty of Science (v4, p191) : Next:652-305 | Prev:652-303
Credit points: 22.0
Coordinator: Dr C Cobbett
Pre/Corequisite: Prerequisites: Genetics 652-201 and 652-202. Corequisites: Concurrent enrolment in, or completion of 652-302, at least another 15 points of 300-level Genetics subjects
Contact: 26 lectures (one a week); 78 hours practical work (three hours a week) may include a 5-hour excursion
Timetable: Double semester.
Objectives:
By the end of the subject students should:
- understand the application of genetic principles and different experimental designs in classical, molecular, population and somatic cell genetic analysis;
- appreciate the advantages and disadvantages of these different designs;
- have developed a detailed understanding of the techniques employed in experimental designs;
- have experienced the use of particular laboratory techniques and analytical approaches in each of these areas of genetics;
- have become proficient in the analysis and interpretation of data derived from their own experimentation and that of others;
- have gained experience in the written and oral presentation of scientific data;
- be able to combine their understanding of genetic principles, experimental design and specific techniques to the investigation of new problems in biology.
Content:
Principles and techniques of genetic analysis from classical and population genetics to modern biochemical and molecular technology. Interrelation between methods in areas such as developmental, microbial, cyto- and somatic cell genetics.
Assessment:
A 2-hour written examination at the end of each semester; up to six practical reports, weekly problems/assignments and two oral presentations of experimental data (15 minutes each).
