UWS Summer STEM Academy

Gillian attended the UWS Summer STEM Academy to hold workshops on Genomic Data Science in the Classroom for senior high school pupils and student teachers.  Attendees also had the chance to extract DNA from kiwi fruit, practise their pipetting skills and attempt the DNA origami challenge (Lanarkshire campus, July 2019).

Oran-gene-ious!

Gillian and Roxanna explain how to extract DNA from oranges and how experiments looking at DNA can be used to identify new risk genes for Alzheimer's disease (Future Memories, Glasgow Science Festival, June 2018).
