http://www.biology.missouri.edu/outreach/SummerInst.html

Extractions: Purpose and Scope: From DNA fingerprinting to Dolly, the molecular genetics revolution has transformed our world. To participate fully in societal decisions affecting their lives, students need a basic understanding of modern genetics and of statistics and probability. Amplification of DNA by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a powerful technique used in nearly every aspect of genetics. In the Summer Laboratory: DNA and Development, designed specifically for secondary school science teachers, PCR technology is used to illustrate basic concepts and new developments in molecular genetics. The summer laboratory is designed to train teachers in experimental procedures and to develop new inquiries for an integrated math-science curriculum. During the school year, a "virtual van" program will provide participating teachers with high-tech equipment, reagents, and a set of experiments in human population genetics and zebrafish development. Human population genetics: Genetics is a way of understanding human diversity. In the first set of experiments, students' own DNA is used as the basis for inquiries into human population genetics. Students collect their DNA by a mouthwash technique, amplify variable regions by PCR, and obtain DNA "fingerprints" similar to those used in the courtroom. By comparing their data to national databanks, students become aware of the underlying similarity of all human genepools. Biology and mathematics classrooms will collaborate on analysis of student data.

http://www.aber.ac.uk/parasitology/Edu/Diag/DiagTxt.html

Extractions: There are three important reasons for identifying parasites: for treatment, understanding their epidemiology and the implementation of parasite control strategies. Traditionally, the diagnosis has been based on finding the parasite or its eggs. However, many parasites are morphologically indistinguishable (i.e. there is often lack of specificity in conventional tests) while egg based diagnosis has limited sensitivity. Therefore, as current laboratory techniques are not entirely satisfactory molecular approaches are being developed as alternatives. Molecular diagnosis can be divided into biochemical, antibody and DNA based analysis. Serological methods rely on the identification of specific antibodies or antigens and the advantage is that easy-field based tests can be developed for individual and mass population screening. The disadvantage is the inability to distinguish between past and current infections or between morphologically similar parasites. Assay development can also be expensive. However, antibody based analysis is routinely incorporated into Sleeping sickness surveillance. Anti-trypanosomal IgM is detected by a simple, cheap and rapid plastic card agglutination test for trypanosomiasis (called CATT).

February 1997 Review by One could be led to believe that a molecular biologist armed with a copy of 'Maniatis', or one of the 'Current Protocols' publications, would have adequate technical support to successfully accomplish most experimental procedures. In the real laboratory world, we know that even established methodology is adapting and changing at an alarming rate and that new experimental approaches are regularly appearing on the horizon. This small book fills an important niche in the market, for it aims, and I believe succeeds, in bringing the reader up to date with recent innovations in established techniques as well as introducing us to more state of the art methodology. The book contains ten chapters, all written by experts in the particular fields and interestingly, the editors have recruited over half the authors from the commercial sector. These contributions tend to bias their chapters towards products available from their particular companies, although in general they seem to have covered their subjects fairly comprehensively. Each chapter covers a review of the technique, concentrating on recent innovations and then discusses likely future trends. Most chapters end with protocols covering recent advances or more specialised approaches. Each chapter is also accompanied by an extensive list of references, in most cases concentrating on papers published in the last five years. All chapters refer to material published last year, which is a good indication that the editors and the publisher have succeeded in bringing this book to the bookshelves without undue delay.

Extractions: Chapter Abstracts How to buy this book Chapter 1. Recent Advances in PCR Methodology. Michael P. Weiner, Tim Gackstetter, Gina L. Costa, John C. Bauer, and Keith A. Kretz Protocols are presented for several PCR methods. These include Pfu DNA polymerase polishing to increase PCR cloning efficiency, blunt-ended PCR cloning, site-directed mutagenesis and colony PCR. The objective of all of these methods when used with PCR is to decrease both the time and the effort involved in routine laboratory procedures. A discussion of laboratory equipment and supplies, including thermocyclers and imaging equipment is included. We also present a brief discussion of the different polymerases used for PCR, including mixed polymerases used for PCR of long regions of DNA. Chapter 2. Thermal Cycle Sequencing. Keith A. Kretz The acquisition of DNA sequence information is an integral part of many research projects. The goals of the Human Genome Project alone include determining the sequence of the 3 billion base pairs of DNA in the human genome as well as several model organisms. To that end a number of improvements have been made in sequencing strategies and data acquisition which allow sequence data to be obtained more efficiently. One of these improvements was the development of thermal cycle sequencing, or linear amplification sequencing, as it is sometimes known. This method utilizes a thermostable DNA polymerase in a temperature cycling format to perform multiple rounds of dideoxynucleotide sequencing on the template. The advantages include stronger signals from smaller amounts of template and the ability to sequence previously unreliable templates.

Courses: Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Advanced General Biology, and Scientific Writing How do organelles such as mitochondria and lysosomes move to the locations where they are needed in cells? What regulates this motility? Those are some of the questions my undergraduate students and I investigate in my research laboratory. I am a cell biologist whose major teaching interests are in the fields of cell biology and biochemistry. I teach Cell Biology to Sophomores in the Fall semester and Biochemistry to Juniors and Seniors in the Spring semester. It is our philosophy that the best way for students to learn biology is through hands-on experiences, performing experiments utilizing equipment currently in use in the research and industrial labs of today. We have received several National Science Foundation grants in the last 10 years, allowing us to set up and maintain our teaching labs with the latest modern equipment. For example, in our Cell Biology course we use phase and fluorescence microscopy to study human fibroblasts grown in tissue culture. Fluorescent molecular probes are used to study the various cell compartments. During the course we also use various techniques of centrifugation and electrophoresis to isolate and study various cell components. In Biochemistry the students spend the second half of the semester working in independent research teams to purify a protein. They choose various techniques of electrophoresis and column chromatography to purify the protein. By becoming familiar with the equipment and techniques currently used to gather the information that appears in the textbooks, our students find it much easier to appreciate and understand the concepts that are presented.

The modeling and understanding of gas transfer across the air-ocean interface, requires the knowledge of the magnitude of surface flow divergence. Further, the interpretation of surface features apparent in imagery obtained from satellite-borne radars wed to predict gas transfer rates remotely is hampered by a lack of sea-truthing measurements of surface transport.

Extractions: About EVMS Quick Facts History Centers of Excellence ... Upcoming Events July 1, 2002 NORFOLK, VA. Scientists involved in the National Cancer Institute's Early Detection Research Network report significant progress in their effort to develop a new diagnostic test for the early detection of prostate cancer. Initial data published today in the journal Cancer Research indicate that the techniques developed at Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) may be able to detect the presence of prostate cancer earlier than current diagnostic tests, with a 90 to 95 percent accuracy rate. The work was carried out at the Virginia Prostate Center at EVMS. George L. Wright, Ph.D., professor and chairman of microbiology and molecular cell biology at EVMS, is co-author of the study "Serum Protein Fingerprinting Coupled with a Pattern Matching Algorithm Distinguishes Prostate Cancer from Benign Prostate Hyperplasia and Healthy Men." At the time of the study, Wright also was scientific director of the Virginia Prostate Center; he has since left that position The standard PSA (prostate specific antigen) screening used to detect prostate cancer has raised awareness about the disease but lacks specificity, said Wright, who contends this limits its use in diagnosis and makes it a poor tool for early detection.
