At Claremont McKenna College:
Codes of Life (SCI 010L): An introductory course for the integrated sciences major and general education requirement at CMC focused on the global challenge of antibiotic resistance. Students learn the biological basis of how antibiotics work, learn to code in Python to model phenomena such as population growth and natural selection, and perform laboratory experiments exploring antibiotic resistance on campus.
At Carleton College:
Genetics and Genetics Laboratory (BIOL 240 and 241): A mid-level biology course covering the transmission and expression of genetic information. The associated laboratory focused on genetic engineering in C. elegans, directly contributing to ongoing research in the biology department.
Seminar: Selected Topics in Developmental Biology (BIOL 356): Designed and taught an upper-level seminar with 9 junior and senior biology majors, focused on critical analysis of primary literature in the field of developmental cell biology.
Genes, Development, and Evolution, A Problem-Solving Approach (BIOL 125): An introductory biology course designed for both majors and non-majors, exploring the flow of genetic information in biological systems. This course includes a significant problem-solving component designed to level the playing field for students regardless of their previous scientific experience.
At San José State University:
Principles of Developmental Biology: Instructor of record for course of 58 students including undergraduate majors and graduate students, exploring the principles of developmental biology in animals, with a focus on mammalian development and model systems
