GENETICS OF HUMAN HISTORY

ZOOLOGY 415
과목 설명

Covers a range of topics related to human genetics and evolution. Explores questions about what genetic differences between humans tell us about our species' evolutionary and demographic history, and conversely, how our history has shaped the genetic diversity of people living today. At a time of rapidly increasing ability to sequence huge numbers of genomes such questions play a central role in understanding how genetics impacts individuals' disease risks, how to interpret reported ancestry and family history from direct-to-consumer genotyping kits, and how genetics can (or importantly, cannot) inform descriptions of human diversity and concepts of race. Includes topics of diversity and inclusion in genomics studies, with a focus on the application and limits of results obtained from one group to our understanding of other groups.

HUMAN GENETICS

GENETICS/MDGENET 565

Principles, problems, and methods of modern human genetics. Focuses on how researchers discover the genetics of diseases and how those discoveries are used to improve clinical practice. Surveys aspects of (i) the molecular function of the human genome, (ii) the basic principles of human genetics including statistical genetics, quantitative genetics, and genomic variation in human populations, (iii) the genetics of rare disorders and common diseases, and genomic analysis approaches, including genome-wide association studies and sequencing, and (iv) how genetics are used in medicine and discussions covering ethical considerations of human genomic data.

HEREDITY, ENVIRONMENT AND HUMAN POPULATIONS

ANTHRO 304

Cultural and ecological factors influencing the composition and structure of human populations; variation and distribution of genes within and between populations; history and evolution of human populations as evidenced by genomes.

GENOMES AND SOCIETY

GENETICS 234

The sequencing of genomes has transformed our understanding of the evolution of species and human history, our approaches to improve health and medicine, as well as how we tackle global environmental challenges. Explore the many ways in which the sequencing of genomes is revolutionizing our world, and dive into DNA from viral to human genomes. Understand how genomes are expressed, the impact on phenotype, as well as how it can change over time and in different conditions, are processes that are essential for life and the evolution of species.

PRINCIPLES OF BIOLOGICAL ANTHROPOLOGY

ANTHRO 105

Genetic basis of morphological, physiological and behavioral variations within and between human populations, and their origins and evolution.

GENOMES IN A MODERN WORLD

GENETICS 335

The ability to sequence genomes rapidly has transformed our understanding of the evolution of species and human history, our approaches to improve health and medicine, as well as how we tackle global environmental challenges, and increasingly impacts our modern world. Explore the interdisciplinary connections between genetics- and genomics-based research and important current questions related to ethics, history, and public policy.
