Aims & Learning Objectives:
Aims: To develop students' abilities to assimilate compilations of experimental data and to draw valid conclusions from them.
After taking the course, the student should be able to:
* study a collection of biochemical observations, such as the Results Section of a publication or simply a series of related observations compiled specifically for the exercise, and assess their significance. Indications of this ability could be, eg answering particular questions or writing the Discussion section of a paper. It is especially important that the student learns to draw only such conclusions as are fully justified by the data. Additionally a student should be able to use current methods to understand sequence data from the human and other genome projects.
Content:
