Professor Peter Calabrese is an Associate Professor in Quantitative and Computational Biology at the University of Southern California and the Director of Undergraduate Studies for Quantitative Biology. Feel free to talk to him about the probability that a couple who are both carriers for albinism will have exactly 3 children out of 100… or if that isn’t your thing then that’s fine too. He’s also very well versed in R (the program, not the letter unfortunately) if you’re interested in computational biology or mathematical modeling.
