BIOL 215 Cancer Biology
This course is designed to focus on specific topics in biological, environmental, or natural resources. The course will involve in-class lectures and specific journal article reading and discussions. The students will write and submit a research report for each topic investigated, including researching scientific journals for reports and reviews on cancer ranging from specific cancers, new cancer treatments or research studies involving new treatments. The research reports will be presented as power points to TMCC faculty, staff, students, and open to the Turtle Mountain community. At the completion of the course, the students will understand the process of cancer, why some cancers are increasing while others are decreasing in the human community, and the role of chemicals, stress, and the environment in increasing cancer risk.
