(3 units). All major research areas in biology (ecology, evolution, development, cell and molecular biology, physiology) rely in part on computational techniques. In this introductory course, students will learn how to create computer programs to address a variety of biological questions. An emphasis will be placed on simulation modeling of biological systems. Course Component: Laboratory, Lecture Prerequisite: MAT 2379.
