...make substantial intellectual improvements, but I would suggest that is the exception not the rule,” Stock said.In certain fields, professors said, constant updating is necessary.“The field of genetics is changing so fast,” said professor of biology Daniel L. Hartl, who assigns his book “Essential Genetics” for the introductory science course he co-teaches. “Pick up the newspaper everyday, and you’ll see something new,” Hartl said. “If you pick up the scientific literature, it?...
...mixed bag, taking fewer risks and breaking less ground than LS1a. This class takes a more traditional approach to biology, expanding on the now-defunct BS50 course by focusing on genetics and some peripheral disease-related material. The 1a profs seem more polished than those in 1b, though Daniel Hartl stands out as a truly impressive lecturer. Maryellen Ruvolo and John Wakeley clearly have interesting points to make, but get lost in their expansive Powerpoint presentations and statistical data. Robert Lue in 1a and Craig Hunter in 1b have the toughest material, but Lue gets students more excited about...

Guest lecturers finished the class, and Hartl calls it one of the best courses of his college experience.Now the Higgins professor of biology, Hartl doesn’t need to break a leg for his students to have a team-taught experience. He is one of four professors of the new Life Sciences 1b, “An Integrated Introduction to the Life Sciences: Genetics, Genomics, and Evolution.” Along with its 1a counterpart...

"It's certainly possible," says Gregory Hartl, a WHO spokesperson in Geneva...
...cluster itself could remain a mystery. Villagers have been extremely uncooperative with investigators, complicating efforts to get samples from animals and forcing the WHO to set up its command hub 5 miles from the village. "We don't have a lot of access to the village right now," says Hartl. "But they've lost seven people. There's a lot of shock and grief they have to work through first." It's a reminder of the power bird flu still has to surprise-and to kill...
