The One Kit Wonder: Using Modeling to Teach Biotechnology Concepts
Diane Sigalas, MEd, Livingston High School
Your students will go from the blank-stare-wall state-of-mind to understanding the science of PCR, Sanger Sequencing and restriction enzymes when actively modeling these processes with the Biotechnology Kit
©. Then launch into applications in diagnostics, genetics and forensics. Enrich in-class or distance learning with NGSS, AP or IB consistent lessons.
From Biotechnology to a Coronavirus Vaccine
Tim Herman, PhD, Director, Center for BioMolecular Modeling Learn about the amazing advances in biotechnology over the past 50 years – and how they have prepared researchers to create coronavirus vaccines. Within one year, researchers used biotechnology tools to sequence a new viral genome, solve the 3D structure of one of its key proteins, and developed a vaccine that will produce antibodies to inactivate that protein. Isn’t science amazing?
