SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Where will the time needed to teach a molecular biology course be found? I suspect what will happen is that many of the "traditional" courses will extend their discussion of various topics down to the molecular biology level. This approach will work, but it will in effect make molecular biology somewhat disjointed. The student will learn some molecular biology in a Biochemistry course, some in a Microbiology course, and some in a Histology course, etc. The problem this presents for students reviewing for USMLE Step 1 is that molecular biology information will be scattered among various course notes"--Provided by publisher
