BIO 390-02 - Readings in Biology

2 credits (Spring)

Conservation Biology. The science of sustaining biological diversity is fundamentally associated with ecology and population biology, but it also applies concepts and approaches from other biological disciplines (such as genetics, reproductive physiology, and epidemiology) and grapples with ethical, legal, political, social, and economic issues. In this course, we will explore the diversity of theory and practice in conservation biology, via a seminar format that emphasizes reading, discussion, and writing about primary literature.
