Biology is widely known as an experimental science. However, contrary to this popular notion, it is a rich terrain for theory construction. This workshop seeks to provide a rudimentary introduction to the art and craft of theory construction in biology as a foundation for learning, inquiry and research in Biology. It necessarily involves critical thinking, and critical reading as well.
