GS040771   Current Topics in Tumor Progression

Gallick, Gary. One semester hour. Fall annually. Prerequisite: none

This is a seminar course in which students meet weekly and analyze current topics in the molecular regulation of tumor progression and metastasis. Alternate faculty and student presentations of the current literature not covered in depth in other courses or formats will fulfill two objectives. First, students will have the opportunity to learn to critically analyze, evaluate, and present current articles in this area. The second goal is to teach students how to critically write a NIH-type grant application which will be peer-reviewed by both the Coordinator and the students.
