My responsibilities at Purdue primarily revolve around undergraduate education.  I teach an introductory Biology course with two parts, each taking one semester.  The course is designed for life science student who are not biology majors, and at Purdue that includes mostly pre-Pharmacy, pre-Nursing, Agronomy, Animal Science, and some pre-Med students.  I teach a rigorous course and aside from topics like cell biology, genetics, ecology, and evolution, hope to teach my students to be able to analyze, solve problems, and apply their newfound knowledge.
