We use DNA routinely to cure diseases, solve crimes, and reunite families. Yet it's still a relatively new scientific discovery and we're continuing to learn about its potential to transform our health, our nutrition, our society, and our future.
But what, exactly, is DNA, the self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms? You'll learn the answer - and much more - in this briskly paced series of 24 fascinating lectures from an award-winning teacher, author, and scientist. Professor David Sadava of the City of Hope Medical Center unlocks DNA's mysteries as he explains what the science of genetics is and guides you through decades of cutting-edge research, scientific discovery, and genetics' weighty implications for us as individuals and as a society.
You'll learn how understanding genetics is a critical step toward understanding human identity; understanding how DNA works and what happens when something goes wrong enables us to see the roots of how our bodies work, why we get sick, and how traits are passed through families.
Enjoy this rare opportunity to peer over the shoulder of a working scientist, learning how he puzzles through the problems of genetics to find meaningful, real-world solutions that can not only save an individual life but also enhance the quality of life for everyone.
