Courses taught
Bio 415/615- Epigenetics and Gene regulation ( semester I 2014, 2015)
Learning objectives:
This course enables students to understand how epigenetic modifications influence gene regulation without any alteration in nucleotide composition (mutations). Beginning with the basic chromatin structure, this course will expose students to the myriad roles of epigenetics in normal development to various diseases.
Bio 201- Basic Genetics ( semester II 2014)
Learning objectives: This course enables students to learn basic concepts of genetics and their influence on various aspects of life and it will provide a foundation for more advanced studies in human, animal, and plant biology and related fields.
Bio 203- General Biology Laboratory III ( semester I 2013)
Learning objectives:
Plasmid isolation, Competent cell preparation,Transformation and calculation of the efficiency, Nucleic acid estimation, Polymerase Chain reaction,
Agarose Gel electrophoresis, Poly Acrylamide Gel Eelctrophoresis (PAGE), Plasmid restriction mapping,Genomic DNA isolation
Bio 304- Molecular Biology ( semester II 2015)
Learning objectives:
This course will mostly deal with processes that generate molecules of life i.e. DNA, RNA and proteins. It will also empha
size on processes these molecules regulate inside the cell.
