Week 6

We started out the week with midterm presentations, it was interesting to see what everyone else has been up to this summer. As far as experiments go, we collected water to set up another grazer experiment and continued on with the infection experiment which will probably be ending sometime soon. We got some new taq to use for PCR’s, but it didn’t work, and a restriction digest also didn’t work which was very disappointing. So those things will have be to troubleshoot-ed next week. We did get our first sequences back, which was pretty exciting.

The NSF site visit was on Thursday, and it was very interesting to watch and hear about how CMOP functions and how the research from separate labs are all interconnected.
