Year 2 module "Integrated Science: Patterns and Populations" has been split in two:

Old:

Integrated Science: Patterns and Populations

This module is a continuation of the modules covered in Year One of your studies and focuses on molecules, cells and organisms to further increase scale to population level. Using more advanced methods and analysis, you’ll analyse data, model interactions and spatial patterns and link changes at the DNA and transcriptional level to outcomes in spatial developmental patterns, species interaction and population ecology. You’ll explore gene and gene networks, developmental patterning and conclude with ecology and evolutions in populations, communities and ecosystems.

New:

Integrated Natural Sciences - Cellular Decision Making

Building on your experience from Year 1, you’ll use mathematical and computational approaches to understand how cells can make decisions. We focus on different forms of feedback, to explain how, for example, cells can display switch-like behaviour. We finish by applying to developmental patterning.
