Modern Microbiology is for the student who is curious about life science & wants a hands-on experience. The course is heavily lab based and focuses on microbiology, with an emphasis on bacteria cultures & the creation of glow in the dark bacteria. The course culminates with students developing their own antibiotic medicine derived from natural sources.
