Rhodes requires all of its students to participate in a senior capstone experience. The purpose of this experience is to allow students to integrate knowledge from different sources and to refine their writing and speaking skills. In this class we will accomplish these objectives as part of a seminar covering the mechanisms and implications of signal transduction. A seminar course is one in which the participants teach and learn from each other through reading and discussion. The course will be taught in partnership with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by St. Jude faculty and postdoctoral fellows.
