One of the teachers we work with snapped this picture during our Pollen Virtual Lab Demonstration. The students were so excited to find this one. Can you guess what plant this came from? @DNALC #virtuallearning #science #pollen #Otzi #amscope 🌺🌻🌹🌼

Students often practice science in a classroom, but it can happen anywhere! Read about how @DNALC helps students monitor biodiversity in their own backyards with DNA Barcoding: https://t.co/w1Vepzeak6

This week we had the challenge of power outages and bringing the lab home. My World of Enzymes campers did an amazing job adapting! 🧬 #summercamp #virtualteaching #genetics #science #enzymes #dna @DNALC

Oyster gardening back in full swing! Excited to take care of and keep data for one of @CSHL sponsored cages again this year. 🦪 @friendsofthebay

I was able to join this webinar hosted by @SouthamptonCtr on “The Ripple Effect: Small Actions Impacting Larger Scale Change”. The recording is up on Youtube and it is worth a watch! #conservation #oystergardening #reduceplastics https://t.co/IbugffN3bS

Happy Earth Day! 🌎 Flashing it back to my internship with the NYS DEC where I helped assess the stock size of juvenile striped bass in Long Island bays. One of the best experiences! #environmentalscience #biodiversity ⁦@NYSDEC⁩ #conservation #earthday #stripedbass

DNALC live: Join Megan this Tuesday at 3pm as she takes a look at plant and animal cells under a microscope and discusses the diversity of life! https://t.co/7tt7FOZEhM #DNALClive #eLearning #STEM

[Megan Capobianco @Ms_Capo]

Join me LIVE tomorrow! It’s a great opportunity for your science classes to get some virtual lab time👩🏼‍🔬

DNALC Live: On Thursday, March 26 at 3:00pm (EDT) Megan will show us mutant and wild-type fruit flies and participants can observe how mutations in DNA can affect the traits of living things! https://t.co/2CZ67d8JyN #dnalcLIVE #eLearning #STEM

While the world focuses on #COVID19, grads of the @DNALC understand the science. Since 1995, approx 68K per year have used PCR, the tech at the heart of COVID19 testing. Here is a chance to catch up with what those students know.👇 #PCRtest https://t.co/2rPA31aDkB

Come hang out with Dr. Pepenella and I at the #PineBarrensDiscoveryDay at Wertheim Wildlife Refuge ! @DNALC @LIPineBarrens

@AB84 hey... could you like go to practice and not punch anyone? I’ve got 10 bucks on the line for my fantasy league and can’t lose. #thanks

One of my student from Fun With DNA 3D printed this double helix for me! It took 26 hours! So thoughtful 😭 #dnalc #doublehelix #dna #3Dprinting

[Megan Capobianco @Ms_Capo]

How perfect is this shirt for our Fun With DNA camp?! She didn’t even know we would be genetically engineering bacteria to be bioluminescent 🧬 @DNALC #dna #science

@SimonFraser_1 @CSHL @friendsofthebay Not a dumb suggestion at all, but in addition to restoring shellfish populations, the water filtering capabilities of these oysters helps to filter out excess nutrients in the harbor, helping support a healthy ecosystem. When fully grown they can filter 50 gallons per day #winwin

[Megan Capobianco @Ms_Capo]

Spent Saturday morning working on @CSHL sponsored oyster cages in Laurel Hollow. Our oysters have doubled in size since the season began! Its a great opportunity to work with the community and raise awareness about the importance of water quality. @friendsofthebay

First day of #FunWithDNA ! Learning about the structure of DNA and making double helix models 🧬 @DNALC
