| Description: |
I'm looking for three to five students to help develop a course that uses molecular biology, problem solving and epidemiological methods to understand aging.
|
| Qualifications: |
Students should have at least a moderate background in biology, but curiosity and creativity are much more important. Ability to speak either French, German, or Japanese is a plus but not necessary. |
|
Duties:
|
Help develop and field test course materials for a class that is in development. Duties include everything from solving brain teasers to learning about cataracts and unusual diseases such as Pellagra and Werner's syndrome and trying out tools on the internet.
|
| Other Information: |
The goal is to develop an interesting and course. If we get boring, we find a way to make it interesting or move on to something more promising. |
