The major emphasis of this course is to develop within students the ability to critically read, evaluate and critique papers in the areas of biochemistry, molecular biology, and genetics. Students will meet weekly for two hours in a small group setting to discuss papers, with all groups reading the same set of papers. Each group of students (5- 6/group) will meet weekly with one faculty member during the course of the semester. Grading will be based on attendance, participation, mock manuscript reviews, and student-led classes.
