About Sami

Dr. Sami Case is an assistant professor in the Department of Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State University. He teaches in the pre-clinical curriculum of the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program and leads BMS 450: Pharmacology, an undergraduate/graduate elective focused on the physiological mechanisms of drugs. In addition to his teaching responsibilities, Dr. Case holds an administrative appointment supporting biomedical education and development of the updated DVM curriculum. His current scholarly work centers on the impact of ungrading and alternative assessment methods on student learning in upper-level STEM courses. Current CSU students interested in volunteer-based education research experiences are encouraged to reach out to him directly. Outside of work, Dr. Case enjoys spending time with his partner and miniature dachshund, Hippo. He also in an avid Fortnite player—mostly for the chaos, occasionally for the glory, and always as a firm believer that hiding in a bush is a valid scientific strategy. (Ask a rabbit.)
