Case Study on Genomic Imprinting
from APS Publications Podcast Hosted by apspublicationspodcast
In our latest episode of The APS Publications Podcast, we feature Dr. Lara K. Goudsouzian (DeSales University) and Dr. Stanley M. Lo (University of California at San Diego) discussing their Illuminations article published in Advances in Physiology Education. The authors noted that students often struggle with the concept of genomic imprinting, in part because it violates Mendelian rules of inheritance. Goudsouzian and Lo hypothesized that the use of a case study would help students better learn the topic of genomic imprinting, an abstract phenomenon in molecular biology and genetics. The authors wrote an interrupted case study that focused on genomic imprinting. The case study consisted of three short popular news articles that relate to genomic imprinting followed by a set of questions. Students learned about genomic imprinting and enjoyed doing it when completing this case study. Tune in to find out more. Lara K. Goudsouzian, Stanley M.
