TOP REVIEWS FROM GENES AND THE HUMAN CONDITION (FROM BEHAVIOR TO BIOTECHNOLOGY)
Really interesting material and well taught, even entertaining at times! :0) The quizzes were detailed but not excessively hard, and did a good job of assessing if you had learning the material.
This course was definitely helpful for me and introduced a new approach about human genetic evolution and biotechnology.
I appreciate your efforts...Thank you all
The syllabus is very well designed and the modules are equally interesting. I'm so happy i learnt so many new things in just one course. Really looking forward to more such courses :)
I'm old - DNA was discovered in my last year of undergraduate studies. I am learning a great deal about what makes humans alike and different, what drives our behaviors. The course is informative
