This course was focused on familiarizing students with laboratory techniques utilized in molecular biology, specifically DNA isolation, characterization, and manipulation. I worked in a team of 3 to collect and analyze data and explain results in laboratory reports. It also reinforces critical concepts of the Central Dogma of Biology that many other courses in the Biomed curriculum build on. The course also serves as a writing-intensive course within the curriculum. Written communication skills in the sciences are critical and the Bio 219 course is the first introduction for most of the students to engage in how science is communicated in text.

This course was very significant in learning some fundamental techniques utilized in the field of Biomed that I want to work in which is genomic and sequencing technologies.
