Year 9 SEAL Class goes to GTAC

Students participated in two online courses prior to going on this GTAC excursion: Exploring the structure of DNA and  Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for copying and amplification of DNA. During the excursion, students were divided into small teams and worked with a PhD candidate from Melbourne University to prepare a sample from a species of cow tick for DNA sequencing and analysis.

Thank you Ms Mortimer and Mr Garaj for their work in organizing this wonderful excursion.
