Honors Biology students put the scientific method into action today. They explored how pill bugs respond to different environments and then analyzed their findings. Turning questions into answers—one pill bug at a time. @WMHSTanners

PLTW students gained valuable insights from guest speaker Colleen Cormier, MSN, MPH-N, CPNP, on a career as a pediatric nurse practitioner. Inspiring the next generation of healthcare professionals! @pltworg @WMHSTanners https://t.co/FlAAfqDJsu

Our students successfully cloned and transformed RFP into E. coli, then purified the protein. The results? A glowing success! Great job, everyone!

The Biotechnology & Life Science I students (UML Early College) had an exciting hands-on experience as they prepared and examined onion root cells to observe mitosis in action.

Check out what our students are doing in PLTW Medical Interventions Activity 1.1.6! They dove into the ELISA procedure to explore how this powerful technique helps confirm the presence or absence of disease. Science in action! 🧬 @PLTWorg @WMHSPathways @WMHSTanners

Biology students had a ball designing an experiment that explored how pill bugs reacted to a change in their environment. @WMHSTanners

Freshman biology students explored the homology between vertebrae forelimbs. That is a fancy way of saying that we dissected chicken wings and compared their wing structure to human arm structure. No wings were eaten in the lab! 🙃

Biotechnology Life Science I, Early College Program @UMass Lowell: RFP was cloned and transformed into E.coli. RFP was then purified. Students did a great job. Just look at the glow!
