Molecular Genetics booth at COSI Science Festival

First shift volunteers

On May 6th, COSI hosted their annual science festival. Over 100 exhibitors hosted booths of hands on science activities, and Molecular Genetics was there to get people excited about the "FUN"damentals of Genetics. With zebrafish and Arabidopsis on display and fun Punnett square games, we shared our excitement about science with hundreds of visitors of all ages. We thank all of our volunteers, including faculty Anna Dobritsa, Greg Booton, Harald Vaessin, Guramrit Singh, Susan Cole, and Melissa Petreaca, postdoc Rene Arvola, graduate students Anna Lubertozzi, Delia Calderon, Hedieh Jafari, Isabella Mendes, Priscila Rodriguez Garcia, and Derek Boehm, and undergraduate students Kuppan Subramanian, Kristen Nedza, and Jahnavi Tadiboina.

Special thanks go out to Sharon Amacher for again taking the helm and leading the group!
