Wow bing is really showing their misogyny this morning in their fun little DNA quiz.. they had Rosalind Franklin as an answer to “with whom did Crick discover the structure of DNA” and said it was incorrect! 😡

I’m teaching my first class next semester - Conservation Genetics - for undergraduate and graduate students! But, I’m struggling to get started with my presentations bc I have no previous slides to base them on. Has anyone taught/taken a class and would be willing to share slides or a syllabus? 😅
