Assess the feasibility, benefits, and ecological risks of deploying CRISPR-based gene drives to control Aedes aegypti in urban ecosystems. Test students' understanding of gene drive molecular mechanisms, population genetics (drive spread, resistance evolution), ecological interactions and non-target impacts, predictive modeling and data interpretation, deployment and monitoring strategies, regulatory/ethical considerations, and risk mitigation. Students should evaluate trade-offs, design monitoring and containment plans, and formulate evidence-based policy recommendations for urban vector control.
