Dna Sequencing Activity, Sarah O'Leary-Driscoll

Sequencing & Genome Mining

This activity is meant to introduce students to basic DNA sequencing techniques. Using a hands-on approach helps them understand the fundamentals of what is happening in the lab, and the questions that accompany the activity can lead to more in depth discussions about sequencing, and the development of the next generation sequencing techniques.
