(please press SUBMIT button when finished)
Spring 2016  


I. Basic Information

A. Your name  
II. Old business
  1. Crick (1958) and the coding problem
    Any parting thoughts on the companion to Crick (1958)?

     
  2. Problem Set 5 (Coding)
    Any thoughts concerning Problem Set 5, questions 1,2,5,6?

     
  3. Proposal Description
    Clear on the why and how, of describing the current state of your research proposal?


     
  4. Opioid dependence (Exam II, Question 7)
    I devoted a lot of space on the exam and time in class to this question, in part because I think it illustrates how the skills and priorities comprising the goals of the course can make a practical difference in important matters. Still, I admit, the whole thing could have felt heavy handed. What do you think?

III. Crick et al (1961)

A. How far have you gotten in Crick et al (1961) and its companion? The simulation? The alternative graphical simulation?
     

B. Consider how comfortable you are with the following topics regarding Crick et al (1961):

  • The prediction of the loop code shown in Fig. 2 of the companion
     
  • Mutagenesis by acridines
     
  • Recombination between two phages
     
  • The nature of suppressor mutations as relevant to Crick et al (1961)
     
  • How to construct new mutant T4 phages
     
  • What the double and triple mutants say about the genetic code

C. Choose up to five study questions that you would most like discussed in class and explain why.
     

IV. Miscellaneous
Any other comments, questions, suggestions, or concerns you may have?
(nb. Issues concerning your proposal are always welcome)

Thanks!
