Issues related to antibiotic use and infectious diseases are included. The laboratory portion includes experiences in the safe handling of microorganisms, and methods for the culture, visualization, and identification of known and unknown microorganisms. MnTC Goals 3 Natural Science Note: students concurrently enrolled in 02. Formulate and test hypotheses by performing laboratory, simulation, or field experiments in at least two of the natural science disciplines. One of these experimental components should develop, in greater depth, students’ laboratory experience in the collection of data, its statistical and graphical analysis, and an appreciation of its sources of error and uncertainty. 03. 03. Communicate their experimental findings, analyses, and interpretations both orally and in writing. 03. 04.
