UBC Orientation
We extracted DNA from strawberries to hand out at UBC's orientation on September 7!
Quick protocol: mash up strawberries, mix with salt and soap water, filter and aliquot. Add ethanol and see the DNA precipitate. I think I see a double helix!
Outreach at Science World
The UBC iGEM 2011 team will be collaborating with Science World and Future Leaders in Science to deliver a synthetic biology workshop to high school students and foster the creation of a high school British Columbia iGEM team!
Our workshop outline can be found at the wiki for iGEM outreach. We are also hoping to start an iGEM dictionary for synthetic biology and iGEM specific terms.
