Upgrading of Ecology and Molecular Biology Laboratories

本计画改善生物系所提供的两门本科生实验课程：生态学与分子生物学。 该建议的核心是使用计算机分析生态实验室实地研究获得的数据 和分子实验室里的核酸序列。 该项目为学生提供了一个现代的实验方法来研究生物学中的两个非常基本的领域。 此外，还正在获得必要的设备，以更新分子生物学实验室，使之包括核酸实验操作。

This project improves two undergraduate laboratory courses, Ecology and Molecular Biology, offered by the Department of Biology. Central to the proposal is the use of computers in analyzing data obtained from field studies in the ecology lab and from nucleic acid sequences in the molecular lab. The project provides students with a modern experimental approach to the study of two very fundamental areas in biology. Equipment necessary to upgrade the molecular biology lab to include nucleic acid experimental manipulation is also being obtained.
