Course Objective

The aim of this course is to give the student an understanding of the basic concepts of genetics; the ability to relate the gene, genotype and phenotype; the ability to having analytical thinking, to generating experimental logic and to solving problems related to genetics; an understanding of Mendelian and Non-Mendelian genetics, models of inheritance, laws of probability, pedigree trees, sex determination, gene linkage, chromosomal mapping, extrachromosomal inheritance and chromosomal mutations and the ability to relating these topics.
