BIOL-367 Evolutionary Genetics

Professor Hamilton

What processes shape genetic variation and genetic diversity? The answer to this question will be sought in a broad examination of genetic principles that operate during the course of evolutionary change. Topics covered include genetic drift, effective population size, gene flow, natural selection, inbreeding, quantitative genetics, and molecular evolution. This course will seek common themes in Hardy-Weinberg systems, continuous trait genetics, and molecular genetics. The laboratory sessions will cover practical applications including genetic hypothesis testing, linkage mapping, and forensic DNA typing. Prerequisites: BIOL-152; and either BIOL-251 or BIOL-356. (Not offered Fall 2004)
