As of around 3:10 today, we’ve all introduced our zooplankton PCR products into gel electrophoresis. The wait is long, but the results should, hopefully, be worth it!

Today, our research group began extracting DNA from our Daphnia magna practice samples. Surprisingly, it wasn’t all that difficult, and we completed all the steps relatively quickly. Hopefully our next attempt goes just as smoothly!

Today, at the beginning of our lab, our research group received our official name tags! Many of us immediately showed them to our family members and friends, hoping to draw some sort of pride or attention from their response(s), while also validating our efforts.
