Dr. James Snyder (Chemistry, Emory) developed CHEM
470 (Chemistry, Biology, and Molecular Modeling) last year. He has
now taught the class to one group of students and will teach it
again this spring. This class explores the subjects in the title
by integrating laws of nature, world-wide trends, economic forces,
cultural mores, and personalities in science. New materials, disease,
medicine, the environment and science-technology applications across
society are the foundation. Each category is illuminated by considerations
such as cell structure, gene chips, robotics, anatomy, imaging,
epidemiology, demographics, risk factors, environmental effects,
implications of molecular structure and chemical synthesis.
