Dive into the hidden code of life in our hands-on Genomic Sequencing workshop! In this fast-paced session, you’ll discover how scientists read and decode DNA to uncover mysteries about health, evolution, and the living world.
Get ready to (1) explore the steps of genomic sequencing, including DNA extraction, library preparation, and sequencing; (2) analyze real DNA data using bioinformatics tools to align millions of short DNA sequences; and (3) learn how sequencing is used to track diseases, study genetics, and personalize medicine.
No experience is required, just curiosity and excitement! Step into the shoes of a modern genetic scientist and experience the power of reading the genome firsthand.
Please note: this class includes a $150 materials fee.
