Topics include significant events in the current and past history of microbial disease, as well as the classification, structure, metabolism, and genetics/genomics of microbes. These topics are discussed in the context of how they contribute to a beneficial symbiotic relationship between microbes and humans, as well as how they are a factor in pathogenicity. Diseases due to bacteria and viruses are emphasized; however, human fungal, protozoal, and multicellular eukaryotic diseases are also discussed. Three hours of lecture and two two-hour laboratory sessions per week. Prerequisite: BIOL 141 or BIOL 161 . Lab fee: $70.
