BIOL-4430

AIDS: Paradise Lost

AIDS, with its combination of sex, death, and celebrities, holds a strong fascination for our society. The AIDS story is a complex one, shaped by a number of forces. While the primary focus is on the biology of the HIV virus and its interface with the immune system, we do not neglect how social, technical, administrative, political, legal, and economic factors mold the AIDS story. Student presentations of current topics in the AIDS epidemic will be an integral part of the course. (Cross listed as PSYC-4630. Students cannot obtain credit for both this course and PSYC-4630.) Prerequisite: BIOL-2120. Spring term annually.

4 credit hours
