BIOL 494: Seminar in Evolutionary Biology
3.00 Credits
Case Western Reserve University
This seminar investigates 20th-century evolutionary theory, especially the Modern Evolutionary synthesis and subsequent expansions of and challenges to that synthesis. The course encompasses the multidisciplinary nature of the science of evolution, demonstrating how disciplinary background influences practitioners' conceptualizations of pattern and process. This course emphasizes practical writing and research skills, including formulation of testable theses, grant proposal techniques, and the implementation of original research using the facilities on campus and at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. Offered as ANTH 394, BIOL 394, EEPS 394, HSTY 394, PHIL 394, ANTH 494, BIOL 494, EEPS 494, HSTY 494, and PHIL 494.

BIOL 530: Seminar in the Rhizosphere
1.00 - 2.00 Credits
Case Western Reserve University
The rhizosphere is the dynamic zone of soil that surrounds plant roots. Chemical and physical processes in the rhizosphere are controlled by the interaction between plants and a diverse soil microflora. This graduate-level seminar course will explore these processes and interactions as they affect nutrient cycling and the fertility of natural systems. Each week one student will present and lead the discussion on a seminal or current key scientific article dealing with one of the following general topics: Rhizosphere biogeochemistry, diversity and function of the rhizosphere biota, interaction of organisms inhabiting the rhizosphere, influence of rhizospheric processes in plant fitness and ecosystem function.

BIOL 541: Topics in Integrative Biology
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Case Western Reserve University
The goal of this course is to encourage graduate students to think about any question in biology from a broad-based perspective, focusing on the integration of three major themes: 1) evolution and its effects, 2) the cellular basis of life, and 3) systems level control. Each semester, the course may focus on a different topic, but it will be examined from the perspectives of these three focus areas. One faculty instructor with strength in each of these areas will present a few introductory lectures to provide the class with a basic understanding of the topic as it is studied in their area. Then, each student will research a subject covered that semester and develop and present this subject to the class with an explicit evolutionary, cellular or systems level approach. Students will be graded on the quality of their presentations and the overall level of their participation in class.

BIOL 561: Statistical Methods for Scientific Research
3.00 Credits
Case Western Reserve University
This course will introduce students to traditional and novel statistical methods useful for experimental scientists. The emphasis will be on understanding theory and techniques that are used in research. We shall consider problems from astronomy, biology and particle-astro physics. The course will also cover topics of interest to engineers. Current collaborative research problems of the instructor will motivate some of the advanced statistical techniques. Topics to be covered include: Measuring uncertainty and probability distributions (low and high dimensional); point and interval estimation; curve fitting; likelihood and score type tests required for an experiment; posterior probabilities; dealing with small samples (which arise in search experiments); over- and under-coverage using confidence belts; and Monte Carlo simulation methods for planning experiments and evaluating the statistical significance of the results. "GGobi" and "R" open source software will be used for visualization (via dynamic and interactive graphics) and exploring high-dimensional data. Offered as BIOL 561 and PHYS 561.
