Biology Honors Student Class 2016
Pursuing a scientific career is intellectually exciting and practically important to society. Succeeding in a scientific career is both an art and a science. Being successful requires intelligence and expertise in the laboratory, but equally important, it requires skills in scientific writing, oral communication, and ethics. Undergraduate Biology Honors students who are conducting independent laboratory-based research projects perform project-based learning through reading scientific papers, and through writing and oral communication of scientific results, while also gaining exposure to issues in scientific ethics and career paths.

Gunsalus lab publishes on structural protein modeling
Gan and Gunsalus published a paper in Nucleic Acids Research on structural modeling, showing that the ability of microRNAs to recognize diverse mRNA targets requires conformational adaptation of the Argonaute protein.
Kussell lab publishes in Current Biology
Restriction-modification (RM) systems protect nearly all prokaryotes from parasitic DNA. Pleska et al. show that a subpopulation of bacteria carrying an RM system suffers from autoimmunity--a stochatstic process, which temporarily disrupts the host's genome integrity.

Ghedin lab publish flu strain diversity in Nature Genetics
Ghedin and colleagues’ research, which examined samples from the 2009 flu pandemic in Hong Kong, shows that minor strains are transmitted along with the major flu strains and can replicate and elude immunizations.
