Each December and April Genome BC’s Geneskool hosts workshops on Campus at Capilano University in North Vancouver, in February at Vancouver Island University in Nanaimo, and April at Thompson Rivers University. Students get a unique opportunity to experience what it’s like to be a crime fighter for a day by solving a fictitious murder mystery – CSI style!
Students participate in a variety of hands-on experiments and student-driven discussion to narrow down suspects in the mystery. Beyond experiments, the societal context and implications of various genomic technologies are discussed.
Workshops are free, but space is limited. See the availability below and book your field trip today.
