BIOL 127 — Viral Genomics
This is the second semester of a two semester series in viral genomics, beginning with BIOL 122 - Genome Research. Students in this course will annotate the DNA sequence they prepared in the first semester. Students will use genomics software to align DNA sequences, identify genes, and determine the function of proteins coded for by the genes. This course is run in cooperation with the Howard Hughes Medical Institute Science Education Alliance and the University of Pittsburgh. Prerequisite(s): BIOL-122 Corequisite(s): none
