The Genetics class completed their first PCR today! They will ultimately determine their own genotypes for the ACE gene 🧬 Thanks to @jacksonlab Teaching the Genome Generation (TtGG) for partnering with us to introduce students to really cool molecular biology labs! #TGSNATION

It may look like a random assortment of beads on a pipe cleaner, but these Honors Biology students made precisely folded proteins based on the properties of amino acids and discovered how changes in amino acid sequence can potentially lead to disease. #TGSNATION

10th grade Honors Biology students did some digging into how various enzymes are affected by changes in temperature and pH. They created and presented some wonderful posters! #TGSNATION
