More information about DNALC Live: Species Shorts: Homo neanderthalensisMonday, May 4, 2020 1:30 pm - 1:45 pm EST You are the product of billions of years of evolutionary change! Join anthropologist Lindsay Barone to explore the hominins one-by-one in the DNALC Live series Species Shorts. 3:00 pm: DNALC Live: Virtual Museum Tour - Our Genome
More information about DNALC Live: Virtual Museum Tour - Our GenomeMonday, May 4, 2020 3:00 pm - 3:30 pm EST All living things have a genome, including us! Join Amanda for a tour of the Genome section of the DNA Learning Center’s Our Human Inheritance exhibit and learn the story of the human genome and some of our interesting genes. 4:00 pm: DNALC Live: Backyard Bugs: The Amazing Ants
More information about DNALC Live: Backyard Bugs: The Amazing AntsMonday, May 4, 2020 4:00 pm - 4:15 pm EST Ants are seemingly insignificant creatures, often regarded as pests. Yet, beneath our feet, they form huge societies with complex social dynamics that play an important role in our ecosystem. |

12:00 pm: DNALC Short: Transcription and Translation
More information about DNALC Short: Transcription and TranslationTuesday, May 5, 2020 12:00 pm - 12:15 pm EST Transcription and translation are two essential processes that all cells use in order to make proteins. Join us as we explore how the information in the DNA is used to make mRNA and how proteins are built. 3:00 pm: DNALC Live: Using a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) to Predict Bitter Taste Ability, Part II
More information about DNALC Live: Using a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) to Predict Bitter Taste Ability, Part IITuesday, May 5, 2020 3:00 pm - 3:30 pm EST Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) is a bitter substance that only certain people can taste. This three-part series will explore the genetics behind a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the taste receptor, TAS2R38, that affects an individual’s ability to taste PTC. |

12:00 pm: DNALC Live: DNALC Short: DNA Packaging
More information about DNALC Live: DNALC Short: DNA PackagingWednesday, May 6, 2020 12:00 pm - 12:15 pm EST Within the eukaryotic nucleus, DNA and special proteins are packaged together to form nucleosomes, the basic repeating unit of chromatin. These dynamic chromatin structures help to regulate important cellular processes! Join Sharon Pepenella for a brief look inside the world of DNA packaging. 1:30 pm: DNALC Live: Species Shorts: Homo sapiens
More information about DNALC Live: Species Shorts: Homo sapiensWednesday, May 6, 2020 1:30 pm - 1:45 pm EST You are the product of billions of years of evolutionary change!

More information about DNALC Live: Meet the Scientist: Dr. Semir Beyaz, CSHLWednesday, May 6, 2020 3:00 pm - 3:15 pm EST Join us for our Meet the Scientist series, where we introduce you to scientists doing exciting work in academia, industry, medicine, and more! Scientists will discuss their current projects and personal journeys to becoming the experts they are today. |
Thursday, May 7, 2020(3 events)
12:00 pm: DNALC Live: Invertebrate Biology Series: Coral Reefs, Part V
More information about DNALC Live: Invertebrate Biology Series: Coral Reefs, Part VThursday, May 7, 2020 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EST Coral reefs are some of the most diverse ecosystems on the planet. Like terrestrial rainforests, reefs provide habitat for countless numbers of species from fish that utilize them as spawning grounds to marine turtles that stop by in search of food. 2:00 pm: DNALC Live: AP Bio Chat - May 7
More information about DNALC Live: AP Bio Chat - May 7Thursday, May 7, 2020 2:00 pm - 2:30 pm EST The College Board has announced that this year’s AP® Biology Exam will consist only of Units 1 – 6. The DNALC seeks to help students with content from Units 5 and 6, which pertain to molecular biology and genetics. 3:00 pm: DNALC Live: Using a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) to Predict Bitter Taste Ability, Part III
More information about DNALC Live: Using a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) to Predict Bitter Taste Ability, Part IIIThursday, May 7, 2020 3:00 pm - 3:30 pm EST Phenylthiocarbamide (PTC) is a bitter substance that only certain people can taste.

12:00 pm: DNALC Live: Intro to RNA-Seq with Jupyter, Part I
More information about DNALC Live: Intro to RNA-Seq with Jupyter, Part IFriday, May 8, 2020 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EST RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a widely used experimental approach in molecular biology. RNA-Seq allows us to measure the level of RNA in cells and tissues, and therefore make inferences about what genes are active, under what circumstances, and when. 3:00 pm: DNALC Live: DNALC Short: Introduction to DNA Methylation
More information about DNALC Live: DNALC Short: Introduction to DNA MethylationFriday, May 8, 2020 3:00 pm - 3:15 pm EST Have you ever wondered how it is that all of the cells in your body have the same DNA – the same set of instructions – but different types of cells can do different things? |
