Introduction to Molecular Biology
Time: Fri May 30, Thu June 5, and Mon June 9, 9:00 - 11:30 am
Place: Bioinformatics Computer Core Lab (Rm 104), Life Sciences Bldg
Organizer: Jeff Elhai Audience: Primarily 1st year students Goals of session Some of you know a good deal about molecular biology, while others of you know almost nothing at all. The notes that follow therefore may be not very entertaining or may be overwhelming. Especially to the latter group, I say that I can't tell how much is too much for you. So you tell me. Follow the notes as far as you can, focusing on what you CAN understand and what you can identify as important for further understanding. Then use the questionnaire to let me know where you are.

Before coming to the first session (Friday, May 30)
- Please read the notes given above.
- Please look carefully at the molecular biology problem set, questions: B2, B9, B10, C2, C4, C6, D2, D4. Answer them if you can, but if you can't try to identify within yourself what you need to know or need to understand in order to answer them. We'll discuss them later.
- Please complete the short questionnaire (earlier the better but at least two hours before the session)
Before coming to the second session (Thursday, June 5)
Before coming to the Third session (Monday, June 9)
