There are four topics in the second year On the wild side (ecology, evolution and the influence of climate change) Infection, immunity and forensics (the pathogen/host battle, the genetic code and genetic fingerprinting) Run for your life (the physiology of exercise) Grey matter (a look at your nervous system and how organisms detect stimuli) This is a course where information is learned in contexts which are designed to appeal to you, and the topics are designed to reflect real-world biology.
