Thanks!
Outreach
Check out our human practices and community outreach!
June 10-13 we held two sessions (morning and afternoon) of a four day middle school bioscience camp. It was themed "Life: an expedition". The camp was aimed at introducing students to the diversity of life and experience the latest technologies in molecular biology using state of the art equipment. Students had an opportunity to work with organisms inside and out in their native environment. The iGEM team and CAPS alumni volunteered as helpers at the camp. We taught them about DNA, synthetic biology, and ecology through hands-on activities.We have also made Facebook and Twitter pages that are consistently kept up to date with everything that we have accomplished. This allow us and the other iGEM teams to keep up with are work as well as see the great things all the other teams are doing. Finally, we designed a new way to teach students 3A assembly. It is a paper activity that really forces students to grasp the new concept before they hop into a complicated lab.
