Week-by-Week Progress

Week of 9-29-14 through 10- 4-14

This week our team had to split up. Two of our members-Kevin and Lyuda- went along with our adviser Professor Twaddle to Posters on the Hill for CCURI (COmmunity College Undergraduate Research Initiative) in Washingtin D.C. While they were away, Karinne worked on subculturing colonies into fresh broth so that we can make sure to have clean cell lines to work with.

We also continued our collaboration with Carnegie Melon University. They sent us a kit they prepared and we were happy to test it for them. They kit was a fast, easy and simple to understand procedure that visually extracted the DNA from untoasted wheatgerm.
