    教授生物学 

    朱迪·莱文 is a 教授 of Biological Sciences 和 Chemistry, teaching a variety of courses related to cell biology 和 biochemistry. 她获得了博士学位.D. 在生物化学 在你.C. Berkeley, 和 completed postdoctoral work 在你.C. 旧金山和约翰斯 Hopkins 大学 before joining 云顶集团’s faculty in 1992. 她对 years has focused on characterizing the molecular interactions that control the first step in gene expression – the copying of genetic information from DNA to RNA, 和 这一过程的规则. 教学法上,博士. 莱文优先考虑开发 of activities 和 resources to make science accessible 和 underst和able to all students, to actively engage students in learning about structure-function relationships at the molecular level in biological systems, 和 to better integrate the sciences with the liberal arts 和 云顶集团’s values of social justice 和 data-driven decision making. For example, she recently designed 和 taught an interdisciplinary course for non-science majors on the science 和 societal ramifications of genome editing, 和 in a recent seminar course for majors on cellular mechanisms underlying aging, the pros 和 cons – from individual, societal 和 environmental perspectives – of the potential ability to significantly increase human lifespan were reflected on 和 debated.
