Using modern instrumentation biochemistry students form research teams to purify and investigate specific enzymes. Extensive faculty consultation is involved to help students plan and continually revise their protocols and final reports. A pilot testing of this approach served as the basis for design of this course. The course is part of a department commitment to change the way in which biology is taught to all students. The new department curriculum adapts and implements ideas from a variety of sources, including work cited by the National Research Council (1997, Science Teaching Reconsidered), the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR Newsletter 1997) and previous pilot projects of the Principal Investigator (Mayne, J. 1998 An Investigative Laboratory for Cell Biology, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 9).

使用现代仪器生物化学学生组成研究小组，纯化和研究特定的酶。 广泛的教师咨询参与，以帮助学生计划和不断修改他们的协议和最终报告。 对这一方法的试点测试是设计这一课程的基础。 该课程是一个部门的承诺，以改变生物学的方式教授给所有学生的一部分。 新的部门课程适应和实施各种来源的想法，包括国家研究理事会（1997年，科学教学重新考虑），本科研究理事会（CUR通讯1997年）和首席研究员（梅恩，J. 1998年一个细胞生物学，细胞分子生物学，9）以前的试点项目引用的工作。
