What is the BIOTECH Project?
Nadja Anderson, Ph.D.
Partnership for Research and Education in Plants (PREP)
Primary Goal: To collaborate in sharing knowledge and research about plant molecular genetics and general plant biology and provide students with opportunities to collect, analyze, draw conclusions about, and share real data.
Plants are emerging as excellent tools for both academic research and inquiry based education. The plant species Arabidopsis thaliana is a popular choice in both of the previously mentioned fields. The PREP program will support teachers and students with materials and as they design and conduct experiments in wild-type and mutant Arabidopsis to examine functions of different genes during plant growth and development.
