Have you ever wanted to take your citizen scientistry to the next level? This Webinar will give you the knowledge and confidence to get started with your very own DNA sequencing lab!
Alan Rockefeller will take us through the process on how to do DNA barcoding of fungi in your own home! He’ll show us the ways of DNA extraction, PCR, gel electrophoresis, sequencing, and DNA sequence analysis. He’ll show us the different genes that can be sequenced, what can be learned by sequencing and its limitations.
By the end of this next-level Masterclass, you will know what you need and how to set up a DNA lab at home.
