BIO 505 Advanced Ecology Lab

Concepts of population ecology and population genetics are explored to provide an in-depth understanding of evolutionary biology and conservation biology. Topics include population growth and regulation, demography, interspecific interactions, population genetics, quantitative genetics, evolution of phenotypic plasticity, evolution of life histories, and basic molecular evolution. Students will be required to complete literature reviews of the previous topics, as well as perform a novel research project on an ecological concept of their choosing.
