FORENSICS & GENETICS (June 1-5, 2026) is a hands-on laboratory medicine program where we learn about select diseases and pair them with relevant lab testing. We will create DNA models, and manually make the sequences that result in diseases such as sickle cell anemia. We will solve a murder mystery using forensic skills that depend on laboratory techniques such as ABO blood typing, polymerase chain reaction , gel eletrophresis, hair analysis and DNA fingerprinting.
