Designed for high school biology, biotechnology, marine biology or chemistry teachers who have experience with micropipetting and agarose gel electrophoresis (i.e. separating molecules by size). Teachers will learn the basic techniques used in DNA cloning which include: using restriction enzymes, ligation, bacterial transformation, protein expression and purification. Teachers will also receive training in bioinformatics and explore ways to infuse science career awareness into their classrooms.

Basic skills in micropipetting and agarose gel electrophoresis required.
