DBIO 173A: Foundations of Computational Human Genomics (BIOMEDIN 173A, CS 173A)

(Only one of 173A or 273A counts toward any CS degree program.) A coder's primer to Computational Biology through the most amazing "source code" known: your genome. Examine the major forces of genome "code development" - positive, negative and neutral selection. Learn about genome sequencing (discovering your source code from fragments); genome content: variables (genes), control-flow (gene regulation), run-time stacks (epigenomics) and memory leaks (repeats); personalized genomics and genetic disease (code bugs); genome editing (code injection); ultra conservation (unsolved mysteries) and code modifications behind amazing animal adaptations. Course includes primers on molecular biology and text processing. Prerequisites: comfortable coding in Python from the command line.
Terms: Win | Units: 3

DBIO 199: Undergraduate Research

Students undertake investigations sponsored by individual faculty members. Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr, Sum | Units: 1-18 | Repeatable for credit

DBIO 210: Developmental Biology

Current areas of research in developmental biology. How organismic complexity is generated during embryonic and post-embryonic development. The roles of genetic networks, gene regulation ,organogenesis, tissue patterning, cell lineage, maternal inheritance, cell-cell communication, signaling, and regeneration in developmental processes in well- studied organisms such as vertebrates, insects, and nematodes. Team-taught. Students meet with faculty to discuss current papers from the literature. Prerequisite: graduate standing, consent of instructor. Recommended: familiarity with basic techniques and experimental rationales of molecular biology, biochemistry, and genetics.
Terms: Spr | Units: 4

DBIO 215: Frontiers in Biological Research (BIOC 215, GENE 215)

Students analyze cutting edge science, develop a logical framework for evaluating evidence and models, and enhance their ability to design original research through exposure to experimental tools and strategies. The class runs in parallel with the Frontiers in Biological Research seminar series. Students and faculty meet on the Tuesday preceding each seminar to discuss a landmark paper in the speaker's field of research. Following the Wednesday seminar, students meet briefly with the speaker for a free-range discussion which can include insights into the speakers' paths into science and how they pick scientific problems.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr | Units: 1 | Repeatable 3 times (up to 3 units total)

DBIO 219: Fundamentals of Regeneration Biology (BIOE 219)

This class will be a guided tour into regeneration biology, with an emphasis on fundamental developmental processes. Instead of focusing on what we know, the goal of this course is for students to trace how we know, and how we should ask questions for the future. In my opinion, the most important scientific problems are often left unresolved not for lack of adequate information, but for lack of insights to specify the questions that require explanation. Therefore, in this class, we will work together to search for important questions in the area, by reconstructing historical and controversial ideas, dissecting classic literature, formulating our own questions, and debating to test our answers. This class is a tour, as there is no intention for it to be comprehensive; students will be treated as my future colleagues and provided by a taste of science ? you should progress in your own way, at your own pace that matches your ambition in learning. Therefore, I expect the class to be interactive and even provocative, and the students to be willing to read beyond the class as active reading is essential to succeed in this course.

DBIO 234: Elements of Grant Writing

Focus is on training first year graduate students in proposal writing. In an intensive 4-week period, students learn fundamental skills focused on scientific proposal writing, including writing and criticizing a proposal on the scientific topic of their choice. Students encouraged to use these new skills and the proposal they create to apply for external funding to support their research training. Students in the Genetics home program may enroll in this course with prior approval from the course director. The course may be held online through web-based presentations, discussions and conferences, pending health requirements.

Instructors: Kim, S. (PI)

DBIO 299: Directed Reading in Developmental Biology

Prerequisite: consent of instructor.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr, Sum | Units: 1-18 | Repeatable for credit

DBIO 299C: CURRICULAR PRACTICAL TRAINING

CPT Course required for international students completing degree requirements.
Terms: Aut | Units: 1

DBIO 370: Medical Scholars Research

Provides an opportunity for student and faculty interaction, as well as academic credit and financial support, to medical students who undertake original research. Enrollment is limited to students with approved projects.
Terms: Aut, Win, Spr, Sum | Units: 4-18 | Repeatable for credit
