I mainly teach genetics, evolutionary genetics, and molecular biology to students. I prefer emphasizing more on the philosophy of the topics rather than sharing lots of informations with students. In genetics I teach Mendelian, Non-mendelian inheritance, recombination and linkage, Hardy-Wienberg equilibrium, different aspects of bacterial genetics, bacterial genomes. In molecular biology I teach mainly DNA structure, DNA replication, mismatch repair in DNA, mechanisms of different recombinations in DNA. In evolutionary genetics I teach mutation, selection, neutral theory of molecular evolution, evolution of genome composition, codon usage bias and genetic code. I try to encourage students to ask questions and I teach for learning from students.
