I, Microbiologist - A Discovery-based Course in Microbial Ecology and Molecular Evolution

Klappentext I! Microbiologist is a discovery-driven laboratory manual that proposes to get students engaged in research at a classroom setting. The course is set up to include lecture and laboratory materials in an all-inclusive manual. The strength of the proposed manual is in the emphasis on discovery-based science. Students will experience the trials and tribulations of laboratory research! learn to work independently! and form and test hypotheses in a controlled setting that can accommodate many more students than could be placed in individual faculty research labs. Ideal for Upper-division microbiology laboratory courses! particularly where the focus is on genomics! evolution and systematics. Zusammenfassung * Offers an innovative course on bacterial genomics! phylogeny! evolution and ecology. * Aimed at upper-division undergraduates! the manual allows them to experience the thrill of doing real research. * Using the lab manual! students begin by taking soil samples and working with those same samples throughout the course.
