Discussion of the microbes that inhabit the marine environment, their peculiar physiological traits, and contributions to the ecology of oceans. Students are expected to have completed coursework in introductory microbiology and organic chemistry before enrolling in this course.
-
3.00 Credits
The study of microbial interactions and adaptations in a wide range of environmental conditions and habitats at the individual, population, community, and ecosystem levels.
-
3.00 Credits
Investigation of the complex ecological relationships between microbes and their human hosts, including investigation of the normal microbial community in various body systems, factors that change the microbiota, and the role of the microbiota in normal development, health and disease of the host. Students are expected to have completed an introductory microbiology course before enrolling in this course.
-
4.00 Credits
