MS & HS 2-Day DNA Workshop Session 1

MS & HS 2-Day DNA Workshop
This exciting, two-day workshop for middle and high school students explores the emerging science of DNA barcoding. Participants will dive into all things DNA and understand genetic barcoding’s role in species identification, biodiversity research, and conservation efforts around the world. During this workshop, participants will collect samples, extract their sample’s DNA, and prepare it for sequencing in the lab. Results will be assessed, and when possible, published. This work will contribute to real scientific databases, resulting in a publication for each participant to put on their resumes. No prior lab experience is required, just curiosity and excitement to explore this cutting-edge technology.
