This course focuses on the latest developments in stem cell biology, including ongoing clinical trials using stem cell therapies to treat unmet medical needs. In depth analysis of the current literature in stem cell biology, bioengineering and biophysical analyses is also covered. The discipline of stem cell biology and applications of cell therapy have elements of bioengineering, biomaterials, and biophysics.

MCDB1A . A Month Ago

Clegg is an entertaining lecturer & helped make 8am lectures more bearable by starting a few mins late & doing jokes throughout the lecture. He sometimes speeds through lecture tho. I also have personal beef with his exam questions bc he expects you to remember very small details from lecture. He LOVES all of the above/none of the above options.

Words the questions weirdly.

BEWARE of the trick questions! One word could be different, making the entire answer wrong. I really enjoyed Clegg's jokes and personality. However, when taking the midterm, I was blinded by the trick and niche questions about specific experiments. Now that I know how to study for his section, I bounced back on the final. Just be careful!

He brought his dog to lecture:D Definitely my favorite out of the three professors, his jokes were very silly and I loved the medical mysteries. The topics he covered are kind of hard to understand so reviewing lecture videos and quizzes, watching explanatory YouTube videos, and practice problems are key because exam is a lot of the same questions.

MY FAV FROM THE 1A PROFS he knows what he's talking about, exam questions are exactly like study guide, and he tells a joke every lecture. Takes a content heavy subject like cell biology and makes it very digestible. 10/10 recommend

I liked him the best out of the other 2 professors for 1A. He was very upfront that his midterm would be solely based on his lectures. This portion of bio is entirely based on memorization, there's no critical thinking so it made it easy. It's just a matter of how much raw information you can shove into your brain. Do that and you're golden
