Cure-All- Large Scale Implementation Of Authentic Dna Barcoding Research Into First-Year Biology Curriculum, Oliver Hyman, Elizabeth Doyle, Joseph Harsh, Joanna Mott, Andrea Pesce, Bejan Rasoul, Kyle Seifert, Ray A. Enke
Ray Enke Ph.D.
Growing calls in science education reform have emphasized wide-scale engagement of first-year undergraduate students in authentic research experiences; however, large course enrollments, inadequate student experience, limited resources and departmental inertia often create obstacles to reaching this goal. To help overcome these obstacles, the Department of Biology at James Madison University (JMU) has developed a cost-effective, scalable, and transferable semester-long (14- week) course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) designed for large enrollment introductory biology labs. In this series of labs, first-year students use DNA barcoding to engage in authentic research practices drawn from the fields of ecology, molecular biology, and bioinformatics. These …

Saccharomyces Genome Database & Uniprot Bioinformatics Analysis, Ray A. Enke
Saccharomyces Genome Database & Uniprot Bioinformatics Analysis, Ray A. Enke
Ray Enke Ph.D.
This in class activity introduces basic bioinformatics analysis using the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD) and the UniProt Database. The yeast URA3 gene is studied in this activity, however, any other yeast gene can be substituted. This activity is designed for novice instructors and students for implementation into core biology lecture or lab courses.
