About this Event

After harvesting their own cheek cells, students will extract their DNA using lysis buffer, protease and ethanol. They will go home with a piece of their own DNA in a necklace.
This workshop takes place in the Urenco Young Scientist Centre’s teaching laboratory, offering students a unique opportunity to experience working in a real lab environment. For safety reasons, all participants must wear closed-toe shoes, and anyone with long hair is required to tie it back.
