    DNA Extraction & Electrophoresis

    Popular TV shows such as Law & Order SVU and NCIS routinely show how DNA evidence is used to solve crimes but have you ever wondered how this forensic work is actually performed in the lab? Did you know that scientists have even developed specific methods which allows them to extract and analyze DNA from even a single cell? In this session you will have the chance to extract DNA from your own cells and learn how to use a web-based program to analyze DNA sequences.
