This is a Course-based Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) course. Students will be provided with a collection of results and observations from suitable experimental systems provided by local faculty. In teams of up to four, students will be coached in developing a “next step” hypothesis and designing protocols to test their hypothesis. Once the experiment has been acceptably designed, each team will determine reagents required, prepare necessary reagents, set up equipment, carry out the experiment, analyze the results and prepare a formal journal-style report that describes the experimental purpose, the methods, the results and the conclusions.

Prerequisite(s): BMSC 210.3 and BMSC 240.3
Pre or Corequisite(s): BMIS 340.3
Note: BMSC 320.3, MCIM 326.3 or BIOC 300.3 recommended. Students will be required to successfully complete the online U of S Safety Resources “WHMIS 2015” and “Laboratory Safety” courses prior to initiating individual laboratory work. Some time will be available in the first week lab session. Students may be required to complete these courses outside of scheduled course time during week 1. Students with credit for MCIM 398.3 Team Based Experimental Microbiology may not take this course for credit.
