SUMMARY:Engineer a Living Cell: A Hands-On Synthetic Biology Lab for Teens
LOCATION:561 Windsor St
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 20% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nScientists can reprogram living things. Over two Saturday
  mornings\, you will too.\nThis class is a hands-on synthetic biology lab 
 for curious 13-16 year olds. No experience needed. In this class\, you'll 
 insert new DNA into living bacteria\, grow your own engineered cells\, and
  use the same tools professional biologists rely on every day. By the end 
 you won't just know how genetic engineering works. You'll have done it you
 rself\, and turned the result into a piece of living art.\nThe details\n\n
 Two Saturdays: August 22 & August 29\n9:30 AM to 12:30 PM both days\nOne t
 icket covers both sessions\nAges 12-16\, no prior experience required\n\nR
 eserve your spot for both Saturdays.\n\nSession 1: Build & Transform (Augu
 st 22)\nYou'll start by getting oriented: what synthetic biology and bioha
 cking actually mean\, and how to move safely around a real lab. Then comes
  the main event: a bacterial transformation\, where you physically insert 
 new DNA into living cells. It's the same core technique behind most modern
  biotech. Once your cells have new DNA in them\, you'll culture them using
  genuine lab methods and set them up to incubate so they're ready to show 
 results the following week.\nSession 2: See & Create (August 29)\nCome bac
 k to see what your bacteria did over the week. In this class you'll get ha
 nds-on with a micropipette\, the tool every biologist uses constantly\, an
 d learn to read and interpret your own experimental results. From there yo
 u'll make liquid cultures from your transformed bacteria and use them to c
 reate a piece of living art out of your own genetically modified organism.
