Students Showcase
From Spring semester of 2017, we invited students to send in their photographs to feature on the cover of the semester course program and on our homepage for that semester. The photographs and short project summaries are archived here.

Environmental DNA workflow: taking water samples in the Conkouati-Douli National Park (Republic of the Congo; top left; © Nina Giotto), extracting the DNA at the camp in the national park (middle left; © Flurin Leugger) and analysing the samples using CRISPR-Dx assays with lateral flow strips (bottom left; © Michel Schmidlin). We successfully detected African manatee DNA with the field-based method, though the lab-based method were more sensitive, resulting in additional detections.
