That’s right, these are all made primarily of GLASS — a fact difficult to accept given how accurate & lifelike they are

Confused writing is usually a symptom of confused thinking. As we struggle to clarify writing, we clarify our thoughts. AI writing aids rob us of that struggle, leaving clean-looking text and thoughts still confused for lack of inspection. Writing is not just a product; it is a diagnostic tool.

I’m preparing a class for seniors and MSc students from different fields of bio. I’m looking for exercises that students can take on their own to explore the genome browser and learn about genomics.

The kits we are currently using yield low DNA concentrations. I would appreciate recommendations for more reliable kits or suggestions on how to optimize our protocol to improve yield.
