  • Biology 444/544 - Genomes and Genome Analysis, Fall 2000. Guest lecturer on Sequence similarity searching: How and why and Putting it together with fragment assembly. (Lecture notes and lab exercises are available.)

  • Using sequence databases to identify cDNA sequences can be a daunting task. I developed this page of links for Professor Nelson's Molecular Genetics class, to help access the many resources which are available online.

  • What is Complexity? Laura Gonzales-Guzman and I try to answer this elusive question for Biology 502, Section 17 - Seminar in Ecological Complexity. View our lecture notes and related resources here.

  • I coordinated the lab for Biology 310 - Principles of Ecology, taught by Professor Bruce Milne.
    A copy of the course syllabus is here.

  • Here is a list of Thoughts on Teaching, maintained by John Miller.

  • Here is a list of Tips for Students (of yoga, or in general).
