Plant Genetic Engineering Workshop - Kit included! [200 USD at door]

Welcome to the Plant Genetic Engineering Workshop! Join us at Counter Culture Labs for a hands-on experience in plant genetic engineering. Learn about the mechanisms of DNA and genetic engineering, understand how agrobacterium is used as a vehicle for delivering genes into plants, gain wet-lab experience with sterile bacterial culture, and practice inserting a gene encoding for production of a red pigment into tobacco, all under 4 hours. Take home a plant genetic engineering kit (included in the cost of the workshop!)

Kit Components:
- Nicotiana tabacum plant with pot and soil
- Agrobacterium with RUBY Plasmid
- 20 mL Sterile liquid culture media
- 2 Pipettes
- 10 mL Infiltration buffer
- 2 Blunt syringes
- Nitrile gloves

About the Instructor
This workshop is taught by Anthony Neil Tan, an AgTech professional [UC Berkeley bachelor of science in Bioengineering]. He is currently an independent research scientist and his projects center on optimizing the cultivation of high-value plants via various horticultural methods and plant genetic engineering. His portfolio ranges from designing a plant growth chamber that won a national NASA contest to developing new plant genetic engineering tools at the U.S. Department of Energy's Joint BioEnergy Institute.
