Spring 2022's Microbial Diversity BIOS421/821 MBIO421

Undergraduates and graduate students - 3 credit hours – ACE 10
Microbes are enormously diverse. Though small they are unexpectedly different and they evolve rapidly into life never seen before. Learning about diversity will enable students to understand how microbes influence society, contribute to industry, shape weather, clean water, cause disease and even protect from disease! You will gain the tools to distinguish
microbes of all types as a prelude to case studies. A large portion of the course will consist of guest lectures by UNL’s microbiology experts. They will concentrate on a selected case study emphasizing value, critical features and future contributions. This ACE10 course also emphasizes student group projects that focus on what you think, why you think it and what your classmates think of it.
