Join us to learn the basic techniques of molecular biology while engaging in a fun lab project!
About this Event

The course is hands-on project based so you will use the techniques discussed in class in order to purify genomic DNA, isolate a specific gene from that genomic DNA, clone that gene, and make the protein that gene encodes. Additional support will be given with online materials that include videos and links to expand on knowledge and understanding. Although we will be immersing ourselves right into the hands-on work there will be explanations of the techniques and concepts behind the biology of these techniques during class so prepare yourself some fun whirlwind learning!

The course will take place from 12-5 pm from Monday June 16th to Friday June 20th with new material each day. Your ticket covers all 5 days!
