Students will perform a set of laboratory experiments covering areas of biochemistry such as protein analysis, enzyme purification, enzymatic assays, recombinant DNA and the polymerase chain reaction.

The Wikipedia assignment will provide students with an opportunity to conduct secondary research in library databases and through open access materials. Students will then contribute findings and sources to Wikipedia articles in the discipline. In addition to gaining research skills you will need as a professional, this activity serves as a form of outreach to provide information about your topic to a wide audience.
