Brentwood Field Trip to UBC Laboratory at UBC Michael Smith Labs
Grade 9 students interested in the Advanced Placement Programme attended a DNA Analysis and Bioinformatics Lab at the UBC Laboratory at UBC Michael Smith Labs. This Lab provided the students with an “authentic research experience in the Advanced Molecular Biology Laboratories.” Students got a chance to “carry out a DNA isolation experiment and to use laptops to search the human genome and look at 3D protein structures”.
