Fall 2025 · BIO 0012 · Tufts University · 3 credits · Undergraduate
Designed for non-biology majors, explores the diversity of life on our planet, how that diversity came about, and how human actions are causing changes for the future. The evidence for evolutionary change; the mechanisms through which such changes occur; and the ways in which pollution, ocean acidification, and climate change are subjecting all organisms to a new range of selective pressures. Applications of evolutionary thinking to biomedical research.
