Life in the microbial world is no picnic: Nutrients are scarce and unpredictable; competitors and predators lurk at every turn. Given strong selective pressures like these, bacteria and their viruses evolved amazing mechanisms for gaining the upper hand on their adversaries. This course will focus on current research in the fields of molecular and microbial genetics about the clever adaptative tricks devised by bacteria, bacterial viruses, and selfish genetic elements. The course will involve homework and reading assignments and in-class discussions and quizzes. The main goal of the course is to develop student skills in reading, analyzing, interpreting, and presenting articles from the scientific literature. Recommended: BIOL 2030 or equivalent.
