This program exposes students to a broad range of molecular, microbiological, and cellular biological techniques currently used in
research laboratories. Within the session, students will be immersed in the research experience, giving them a taste of life at the
bench. Using a project-based approach, the course progresses from a survey of basic lab techniques to the application of current
molecular techniques in developmental biology and microbiology. Most of a typical RIBS day is spent in lab. Lectures will provide
background and introduce new concepts. Since communication skills are important in science, students will keep lab notebooks
and they will make several group presentations. The course ends with a research forum in which the students present the results of
their projects.
