2011- II Semester
Advanced Evolutionary Biology (4213003): Course
for graduate students that provides an up-to-date and integrative
view of the
principles that
explain organic evolution. Emphasis will be placed on the processes and
mechanisms that generate heritable changes
and drive biological diversification.
The course seeks to ingrain in the student a critical view of
evolutionary studies and experiments
through lectures, paper discussions and
presentations by the students themselves.
Evolutionary Biology of Animal and Plant Organisms (245243):
Course for undegraduate students from Bioengineering, Biology and
Marine Biology, with
at least four semesters (2 years) of curricular courses, that presents
a synthesis of one of the most important
scientific paradigms, and the development of evolutionary
biology as a mixture of disciplines, including ecology, genetics,
physiology and
development, paleontology and systematics. Together, they successfully
explain the origin, maintenance and extinction of the
Earth's animal and plant diversity.
