This course will consider the use of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a powerful tool for the study of important areas of eukaryotic biology such as gene expression, DNA replication and repair, development and growth control, protein targeting, and metabolism. The course will focus on the classical genetic and molecular genetic techniques available in the yeast system. The course will consist of a combination of lectures and discussions, and presentations by the students. There will be no exams; instead, grades will be based on student presentations and a short written research proposal. Another focus of the course will be on the use of the various databases and other information of interest to yeast molecular biologists available on the Internet. Each student will be required to have access to the Internet via home or lab computers so that they become familiar with its use. Syllabus and links to related materials. By Dean R. Appling.

Examines the relation of political parties to social, political, and economic change in the United States. Can democratic government exist apart from healthy political parties? Some today argue that we would be better off without parties. Others argue that we need more and/or stronger parties to help us address problems facing the nation. We will acquire the tools to address such issues in this course as we examine what parties are and have been, whether parties are in decline, and whether it matters if they are declining. We will find that many students of political parties believe that parties are vital to democratic politics. Many, however, also believe that American political parties fail to live up to democratic ideals. Syllabus, calendar, and links to related materials. By Tim Fackler, University of Texas.
