  • ABio 219: Viruses and Human Society ??

    3.00 Credits
    SUNY at Albany

    This interdisciplinary course will focus on viruses and their impact on human society. It will offer a multi-faceted examination of viruses such as Ebola, SARS, West Nile, HPV and HIV, not only as microbes and pathogens, but also as vehicles for the transport of genetic materials, as evolving populations of individuals, as self-assembled nanoscale supramolecular aggregates, and as self-replicating packages of control logic. This will be followed by a wide range of case studies, each of which will connect one virus to some of the complex, capacious and evolving public issues associated with the political, economic, religious, feminist, agricultural, medical, pharmaceutical, and socio-economic implications of its spread. Finally, one virus and the disease it causes, HIV/AIDS, will be used to provide an in-depth example of the evolution of a viral pandemic, from the molecular to the international stage, and the impact of culture, integration and limited international resource allocation on its global ascendance. For the benefit of chemistry majors taking the course, biological concepts germane to the subject matter will be covered. Only one of A Bio 219 and A Chm 219?may be taken for credit. Prerequisite(s): A Bio 11 and A Chm 121. May not be offered 2008-2009.
