SynBridge, U of L’s synthetic biology maker space, will host a workshop for Alberta teachers interested in learning about synthetic biology. This workshop will bring together enthusiastic high school teachers to learn basic lab techniques in a safe teaching environment. Participants will gain experience in cell culturing, cloning, and DNA analysis, as well as learn the background theory behind the techniques. Teachers will be able to take this knowledge back to their schools to start or continue synthetic biology clubs or iGEM teams.
This session will be in the science outreach space in the science building. Attendees can come to the science building and proceed to the main atrium space on the 7th floor. The lab is right off of there (SA7322A).
