Objective:
Students will learn about the molecular genetics of cancer, discuss the social complexities of cancer, and discuss the abundance of (mis)information about cancer and cancer treatments through a narrative-based approach.
Other Information:
Students will already have covered the biochemistry unit, and are familiar enough at this point with the underlying knowledge to comprehend and discuss molecular genetics and heritability of diseases (or predispositions to them). At this age, a certain maturity level is assumed that should enable students to respectfully discuss the social intricacies of cancer.
