Students will be required to buy a laboratory notebook, sharpie pens, a laboratory coat, and the FISH 490 Laboratory Manual. New and revised sections of the Laboratory Manual may be distributed during the quarter. 490 Laboratory Manual will be available from the instructor. Attendance and Assignment Requirements Students are strongly encouraged to attend all lectures and laboratory sessions. Attendance for the laboratory sessions is very important since several experiments will be started on particular dates, and will be continued in subsequent laboratory sessions.
Assignments are due on the date and time when the instructor informs the students.
Excuses will not be accepted. Cheating and plagiarism can result in course failure. The instructor will inform students about the proper citation of scientific literature and the results of others. Disruptive classroom behavior will not be tolerated. For FISH 490, groups of students are required to make a 45 minute oral presentation and answer questions from the class.
