HiGene: A Genome Sequencing Project for High Schools

罗格斯大学将提供分子生物学和生物信息学方面的综合项目，让高中教师和学生参与DNA测序研究。超过75名教师将在三年内参加该项目，至少140个接触小时（夏季120小时，学年至少20小时）。每年约有30名学生将参加暑期课程，另外300名学生将在每个学年参与该项目。教师将在生物信息学暑期研究所学习DNA，并在学年期间让学生参与这一过程。完成后，教师和学生的项目结果将提交到DNA序列数据库。

Rutgers University will provide a comprehensive project in molecular biology and bioinformatics that engages high school teachers and students in DNA sequencing research. More than 75 teachers will participate in the project over a three-year period for a minimum of 140 contact hours (120 hours during the summer, and at least 20 hours during the academic year). Approximately 30 students per year will attend the summer program and 300 additional students will engage in the Project during each academic year. Teachers will learn DNA during a Bioinformatics Summer Institute and will engage their students in the process during the academic year. Upon completion, teacher and student project results will be submitted to the DNA sequence database.
