Abstract
Many biology students eventually pursue careers in the health sciences. To create explicit links between introductory biology content and the health sciences, we implemented Context Breaks—a series of seven mini-lectures linking course content to lactase persistence/nonpersistence. Context Breaks were implemented over the course of a semester in a punctuated case-study format and received positive feedback from students. They most highly associated them with deeper learning of material.
