Sobre IBD

Designed to support the flipped classroom method of teaching, Biology: Textbook and Activities for the Flipped Classroom introduces students to the fundamentals of biology. Each lesson in the textbook is complemented by a variety of active learning exercises and assessment questions. To promote interdisciplinary connections and big-picture thinking, students learn the historical, ethical, sociological, and technological implications of key concepts in biology. Over the course of 15 chapters and numerous activities, students learn the basics of scientific inquiry, atoms and molecules, DNA structure and replication, genetic mutations, and transcription and translation. They are introduced to Mendelian genetics, the connection between cell division and cancer, evolution, the immune system, and infectious diseases. The final module is dedicated to biotechnology, providing students a glimpse into gene cloning, DNA sequencing, and gene editing. Biology provides students with an immersive and engaging introduction to biology and life science. It is well suited to flipped biology courses, particular those for non-science majors.Kevin M. Bonney is a clinical assistant professor and the assistant dean of faculty development and program advancement in Liberal Studies at New York University. He earned his doctoral degree in microbiology and immunology from Northwestern University. Dr. Bonney has authored and coauthored numerous articles and case studies within his field of expertise.Lori Nicholas is a biology instructor at Northwest Vista College, where she teaches lecture and lab courses. She previously served as a master teacher in the Liberal Studies at New York University, where she taught life science courses for non-majors and developed an online life science course. Professor Nicholas earned her master’s degree in biology from New York University.

  • Viral Replication Complexes
    Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that need to co-opt a living cell’s machinery for replication. At the heart of the viral replication machinery are the nucleic acid polymerases, which are responsible for efficiently copying the viral genome. This process must often be coordinated with other viral processes, including protein translation and viral packaging. The poly...
  • Advances in Flavivirus Research
    The flaviviruses are composed almost entirely of arthropod-borne viruses, a subset of which are responsible for millions of cases of human disease each year. Among these viruses are dengue virus—a scourge throughout the tropical regions of Asia and the Americas; yellow fever virus—the “original” hemorrhagic fever virus; and the recently emerged Zika virus. While the flaviviruse...

  • Brain Asymmetry of Structure and/or Function
    Lesley J. Rogers / Lesley JRogers
    This edited book brings together research reports on the asymmetry of brain function in various species, including humans, dogs, birds, lizards and bees. As shown in a wide range of species, and, as we now know, not solely in humans, the left and right sides of the brain process information in different ways and control different responses or patterns of behaviour. Since this d...

  • The Epithelialto- Mesenchymal Transition ( EMT ) in Cancer
    Joëlle Roche
    The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a highly dynamic process with multiple transitional states, by which epithelial cells can convert into a mesenchymal phenotype. This process involves loss of cellular adhesion and cellular polarity, and an improvement in migratory and invasive properties. It occurs during normal embryonic development, tissue regeneration, organ ...

  • The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
    There has been an observed decrease in the global mortality from cancer, mostly atributable to improved, particularly early, detection and prevention. For many carcinomas and leukaemias in adults, once the disease has reached a certain stage there are no therapies that are able to erradicate the cancer cells and cure patients. There has been progress in the treatment of acute m...
