Undergraduate students often lack opportunities to comprehend, present, and produce scientific literature as part of their regular curriculum. In courses that have already been already developed, students either analyzed a few journal articles and/or studied disciplinary content typically with the assistance of a textbook. In this study, I have developed a course that primarily relies on scientific literature to introduce interdisciplinary science in the intersection of biology and physics. Here, students not only learned content knowledge through literature, but also how to thoroughly analyze about 20 journal articles published in top-tier journals in the field. Students demonstrate their understanding of the content matter through weekly assignments, oral presentations, and a written review article.
