Arizona DNA Day

Follow the #DNAday2020 thread for ways to celebrate DNA Day virtually! #NationalDNADay Celebrating Genomics Through Awareness.

[Arizona DNA Day @AZDNADay]

We would also like to thank the 56 graduate students, post-docs, undergraduates, research techs AND professors who signed up to volunteer for this outreach event!!!

We hope you'll join us for DNA Day 2021!

Regretfully, our DNA Day outreach event planned for the week of April 20-24 has been cancelled due to the ongoing public health crisis.

Thank you to the 13 Tucson high schools that wanted to participate! We hope you may still celebrate #DNADay2020 virtually with your students.

@DNAday Q5: If you don't have the supplies to extract DNA for real, you can do it virtually. @LearnGenetics has a ton of cool resources like this. https://t.co/HMNN9snAC8 #DNADay2020

@DNAday The completion of the human genome project celebrated it’s 15 anniversary in 2018. To celebrate, @genome_gov highlighted 15 ways genomics influences our world. https://t.co/JSqVohhcbo #DNADay2020
