This section is focused on BioMG4860, Eukaryotic Genetics, a four-credit course that has been my major teaching responsibility. My other teaching commitments include or have included participating in Explorations in Undergraduate Biology (Bio101-104), mentoring in undergraduate research (BioGD499), and participating, organizing, or co-organizing Graduate Topics/Problems in Genetics and Biochemistry (BioMG7800, BioMG7810, BioMG7350), and Careers after Training in Molecular Biosciences (BioMG7800). I have also served almost every year as an Adhoc thesis reviewer in the Biology Honor Program. BioMG4860 was created to give undergraduate and first year graduate students training in genetic analysis that builds on fundamental concepts introduced in Introductory Genetics. Concepts in BioMG4860 are presented within the context of a well-studied field, such as chromosome segregation in baker’s yeast. Genetic tools that are introduced in this context are then applied towards the study of a variety of fields such as vegetative and meiotic cell cycle control, embryonic development, and plant, population, and human genetics. My overall goal is to prepare students to independently evaluate genetic studies, to develop theories that support existing data, and to propose experimental approaches to test specific hypotheses. Students attend three hours of lecture per week, read original research papers that they then present and critically evaluate in a recitation (journal club) section, work through problem sets, and write a series of reports based on an analysis of original research articles. Students also write two in class exams and a take-home final that stress analytical approaches. My goal in the foreseeable future is to introduce new topics that will keep the course fresh. Each year I closely examine student evaluations and then take the necessary steps to improve my teaching skills. Since 2004 all of the course material (lectures, readings, problem sets, written assignments, old exams) are available on the web through Cornell Blackboard. A wonderful aspect of this course is that it describes a rapidly evolving field; this allows me to introduce new material and reorganize my notes on a yearly basis. Overall I am pleased with my teaching record as I feel that BioMG4860 is accessible to both undergraduate and graduate students. I have been gratified to hear from undergraduate alumni who have indicated that BioMG4860 provides an excellent preparation for their careers in basic research, medicine, and biotechnology. For the past four years I have been lecturing in BioMG8370: PROBLEMS IN BIOCHEMISTRY, MOLECULAR AND CELL BIOLOGY. This is a class directed towards graduate students in the Field of BMCB.
