BIOL 50.02 Ecology of Infectious Disease

This advanced undergraduate seminar will explore the dynamics of infectious disease through the lens of ecological science while providing training in writing and reviewing research proposals. We will begin by carefully reading case studies from the literature to develop content mastery and strategies for identifying important research questions. Groups of students will then write research proposals, practice the art of constructive peer review, and participate in a mock grant review panel.
