ABE Ireland Lab 5: PCR

This workshop is for returning ABE teachers who have carried out ABE labs in the classroom at least once already. After taking part in this workshop, you will be able to run the PCR lab in your own classroom with your own students. The workshop will cover all things PCR, giving you two options to carry out in your classroom (i) the PTC Taste lab where students get to extract DNA from their own cheek cells and run a PCR on them and (ii) the Covid-19 Waste Water PCR lab which is based on research that is carried out in UCD to track the Covid-19 levels in Ireland.
