MICR 149 Microbial Physiology and Metabolism

This course focuses on central concepts of bacterial physiology and metabolism in the context of diverse microbial interactions. We focus on a range of strategies that bacteria use to make energy, and general concepts related to nutrient acquisition and utilization, motility, and survival. This course will consist of lecture overviews of metabolism and bacterial phylogeny combined with student-presented lectures on an assigned topic. One paper is discussed each class period on the same topic.
