Educational Outreach for Genetics, Bioinformatics, and Sequencing

Founded to bridge the gap between current genetics research and the equipment available in high school science classrooms, BioSeq provides local teachers and students the materials and curriculum support to perform experiments using next generation sequencing (NGS) technologies.
