Courses Given
2019-2020	General and Molecular Genetics Lab	Teaching Assistant
A laboratory course emphasizing the principles of genetics. Experiments include the application of transmission and population genetics using Drosophila as the model organism, such as segregation and independent assortment, sex linkage, linkage analysis and gene mapping, epistatic interactions, and gene frequency changes in populations. Polytene chromosomes and allozyme electrophoresis are also done with Drosophila. Chromosomal DNA, RNA and plasmid isolation techniques, UV induced mutations, genetic manipulation by recombinant DNA techniques and PCR are covered. The course has been designed for students of Molecular Biology and Genetics Program.

2013-2020	Molecular and Cell Biology II Lab	Teaching Assistant
Cell cycle, DNA replication and mitosis, sexual reproduction, meiosis and genetic variability, patterns of inheritance, molecular genetics, cellular mechanisms of development, cellular differentiation and specialization, molecular aspects of cancer.

2011-2018	Bioanalytical Chemistry Lab	Teaching Assistant
A course designed to teach the theory and techniques of quantitative analysis of biologically important ions and compounds. Teaching of laboratory techniques such as volumetry, gravimetry, chromatography and spectrophotometry constitute the major aspects of the practical part of the course.

2010-2011	General Biology Lab	Teaching Assistant
The course content includes evolution and diversity, structure and function at level of organisms, response of the organisms to their biological and physical environments and basic concepts in ecology.
