Another great @DaffDNA session with @HautlieuSchool qualitatively assessing the DNA extraction with loads of bands! Ready for @nanopore sequencing next time! Mr Swanwick was amazed by @miniPCR BluGel

@HautlieuSchool @DaffDNA were busy extracting DNA from their Lowen daffodil chloroplasts this afternoon. We will see how successful they’ve been with @miniPCR BluGel next week

Year 12 Biology DNA daffodil project has begun! 2 exciting sessions now complete.
Students have been upskilled in the use of micropipettes and how to isolate chloroplasts.

Take part in the @RoyalSocBio & @FieldStudiesC Signs of Spring Survey. A fantastic opportunity to engage your students with their local environment. Aiming to track 10 key indicator species with the emergence of spring across the UK. 🪻

#Biology teachers. These talks have been top quality for the last few years and are a great way to get your students to hear from 'real life' biologists. And it's FREE
@RoyalSocBio
Head up teachers! @chatbiology @dewhurst_ben @frcook @KJF239 @leysbiotutor @BeaulieuBio @mrsjmasters @jac_wac and @flygirlNHM spread the word.

What are you doing this Autumn? Biology Week Spelling Bee, that's what!
100 new words for students to learn, same format as last year, prizes and certificates a plenty!
