Human body size, behavior and many diseases are quantitative traits; they vary continuously and are determined by a large number of genes. The study of quantitative traits can provide insights into the genes underlying disease and how species have evolved. This course will cover the identification and analysis of genes affecting quantitative traits and the evolutionary forces that influence genes and genomes in animal model systems. These studies are increasingly being used in humans and are the future of modern medicine. The lab component will provide students a hands-on introduction to the computational methods. Labs will be primarily conducted using R. Prerequisites: BIOL 190 OR 198, BIOL 214 OR EQUIVALENT

This advanced course examines mechanisms of chromatin-mediated regulation of the eukaryotic genomes, gene expression, relating molecular structures, dynamic interactions, nuclear processes, 3-D nuclear organization to biological functions. Topics include DNA structures, packaging and higher order chromatin organization in the nucleus, the transcription machinery, eukaryotic chromosome structure and its modifications, epigenetics and functional genomics, dynamics of nuclear processes, nuclear reprogramming, development and applications of genome manipulation technology. Lectures and readings draw heavily on primary literature both classic and most recent. Prerequisites: BIO 198, Genetics, BIO 250/250H, Biochemistry; good knowledge of Molecular Biology. Cell Biology and/or Developmental Biology recommended.
